Resident Evil Requiem Delivers a 5M+ Week of Zombie Havoc
TL;DR Summary
Capcom announced that Resident Evil Requiem has sold over 5 million copies in under a week, pushing the series past 183 million units overall. Capcom credits the RE Engine’s photorealistic visuals, flexible gameplay (multiple difficulties and real-time first-/third-person switching), and strong pre-release hype and awards for the launch. The rapid milestone contrasts with other titles in the series, as RE4 Remake took months to hit 5 million, while older entries like Village and the 3 Remake took longer to reach that mark.
