Let’s remember that the last time the Japanese publisher updated data on the results of Resident Evil 4 was in mid-summer, along with its bestseller list – on June 30, the game had 7.6 million copies.

As it became known, by now the indicator has reached a beautiful value. Total sales of the Resident Evil 4 remake worldwide have now exceeded 8 million copies.

The announcement of the new achievement of Capcom’s reimagining of Resident Evil 4 was accompanied by a festive illustration (see image above), in which the heroes of the game are juxtaposed with references to its events.

«To all of you, more than 8 million agents, thank you from the bottom of my heart,” shared the developers of the Resident Evil 4 remake from the Capcom Dev 1 team. Words of gratitude can also be seen in the illustration.
