Let’s recall that the last time Capcom updated the data on the results of the reimagining of Resident Evil 4 was last winter: in the second half of December 2024, the game had 9 million copies, and at the end of the month – 9.2 million.
As it became known, by now the total global sales of the Resident Evil 4 remake on all target platforms have already exceeded 10 million copies. The announcement was accompanied by a thank-you video.
As for the new record for the series, until recently the fastest game in the franchise to reach 10 million copies sold was Resident Evil Village, which in turn surpassed the result of the Resident Evil 2 remake.
Resident Evil Village reached the 10 million copies sold milestone in three years and one month, while the Resident Evil 4 remake reached the coveted milestone a little over two years after its release.
