The new year has just begun, and Resident Evil 4, a remake of the 2005 cult action game from Japanese publisher and developer Capcom, has already reached a new sales peak.

Let’s remember that the last time Capcom updated data on the results of the reimagining of Resident Evil 4 was last fall – by mid-October 2024, the game had exactly 8 million copies.
As it became known, after just two months (as of December 19, 2024), total sales of the Resident Evil 4 remake worldwide exceeded 9 million copies, which is 1 million more than the October figure.
If Resident Evil 4 maintains its momentum, it will easily break Resident Evil Village’s record of reaching 10 million copies sold – it took three years and one month to achieve this, while the RE4 remake is not yet two years old.

The announcement of Capcom’s new reimagining achievement was accompanied by a reference-filled themed illustration (see image above) of Resident Evil 4 characters playing bingo.
“To all of you over 9 million agents, Happy New Year and thank you for your support.”– shared the developers of the Resident Evil 4 remake from the Capcom Dev 1 team. Words of gratitude can be seen in the illustration.
The remake of Resident Evil 4 was released on March 24, 2023 on PC (Steam), PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X and S, and on December 20 it reached the iPhone 15 Pro, iPad and Mac. After release, the game received the Mercenaries mode, the Separate Ways add-on, and a VR mode.
