Resident Evil 4 Remake Shatters Sales Records
Resident Evil 4 Remake Surpasses 9 Million Copies Sold: A Capcom Triumph
Capcom's recent remake of Resident Evil 4 has achieved phenomenal success, surpassing 9 million copies sold since its March 2023 launch. This milestone follows the game's earlier achievement of 8 million sales, highlighting its enduring popularity. The surge in sales is likely attributed to the February 2023 release of the Resident Evil 4 Gold Edition and a late 2023 iOS release.
The remake, a significant departure from the original 2005 title's survival horror roots, features a more action-oriented gameplay style. Players follow Leon S. Kennedy as he confronts a secretive cult to rescue the President's daughter, Ashley Graham. The CapcomDev1 Twitter account celebrated the achievement with celebratory artwork showcasing beloved characters like Ada, Krauser, and Saddler. A recent update further enhanced the PS5 Pro experience.
Record-Breaking Sales and Fan Anticipation
Resident Evil 4's rapid sales trajectory has solidified its position as the fastest-selling entry in the Resident Evil franchise, according to Resident Evil expert Alex Aniel. This success dwarfs that of Resident Evil Village, which reached 500,000 copies sold in its eighth quarter.
The remarkable performance of Resident Evil 4 has fueled fan speculation about future Capcom projects. Many eagerly anticipate a Resident Evil 5 remake, a possibility made more plausible by the relatively short timeframe between the Resident Evil 2 and 3 remakes. However, other titles like Resident Evil 0 and CODE: Veronica, both pivotal to the overarching narrative, are also strong contenders for a modern update. Naturally, the announcement of a Resident Evil 9 would also be met with immense excitement.
