Resident Evil Village Ships 5 Million Copies

Resident Evil Village had a mixed reception for mimicking the Resident Evil 4 formula but was still strongly received. The game shipping 5 million copies since launching this year.

This has pushed the series over 10 million copies shipped. As of now, Capcom has not announced any DLC but rumors have been circulating that given the massive sales they may release something. 

Resident Evil Village is the sequel to Resident Evil 7 biohazard (which has gone on to ship over 10 million units cumulatively) and once more places players into the role of protagonist Ethan Winters as they venture into a mysterious, snowy village to rescue his daughter. In addition to a providing a sense of scale that outdoes its predecessor, as well as storytelling that rises above the genre of horror games, this title was lauded for featuring a higher degree of action and even more expansive, highly engaging gameplay. Utilizing the company's proprietary RE ENGINE, which made a simultaneous release on both the new and current generation of consoles possible, the game captivated players with a spectacular play experience featuring stunning, photorealistic visuals and cutting-edge 3D audio. This led worldwide shipments of the game to surpass 5 million units at a quicker pace than its preceding entry in the series.

We reviewed Resident Evil Village and gave it a 90/100 stating despite the heavy action focus it still maintained a tense atmosphere.

Resident Evil Village is now available for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and PC.
