It is very possible that more than one thought of staying in Lady Dimitrescu’s castle to live with her, but surely the owner of the place has not taken it well at all. However, from Capcom they have received the following news with joy.
Through a post on its blog, the Japanese company has announced that its recent release, Resident Evil Village, has exceeded 3 million copies distributed worldwide. Released on May 7, it barely has four days on the market, but it has already been enough to win over PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X / S, Xbox One and PC players.
A good start to the title, although it does not yet position it as the best starter in the franchise. It equals another great success like Resident Evil 2 from 2018, but falls far short of the huge numbers that Resident Evil 6 represented .
- Resident Evil 5 (2009): 4 million
- Resident Evil 6 (2012): 4.5 million
- Resident Evil 7 (2017): 2.5 million
- Resident Evil 2 (2018): 3 million
- Resident Evil 3 (2020): 2 million
- Resident Evil 8 (2021): 3 million
On the other hand, Capcom has pointed out that Resident Evil 7 already has 8.5 million units distributed since its landing until December 31, 2020. In addition, they wanted to emphasize the fundamental role of demos, which they consider key to this success.
Looking ahead we still have to play Resident Evil Re: Verse, the multiplayer format that faces the mythical characters of the saga. On the other hand, Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness will arrive this year on Netflix as the first CGI series of the brand.
