Capcom has announced that the Resident Evil 4 remake has surpassed 4 million copies sold. This makes it one of the fastest-selling games in the series.
The entire Resident Evil series currently sits at around 135 million units sold since the first installment debuted (as of December 31, 2022). “Now, more than 27 years later, continuous support from the passionate fan base across the globe makes it Capcom’s flagship game series,” reads an excerpt from the Capcom website.
The company made this announcement alongside the release of Resident Evil 4’s free Mercenaries DLC. This mode focuses on building combos with more of an emphasis on action. It throws you into various stages from the main game and encourages replayability. Mercenaries mode was available in the original 2005 Resident Evil 4, as well. The DLC is available in the Resident Evil 4 remake for free across all platforms now.
