In March 2023, the re-imagined version of Resident Evil 4 was released simultaneously on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC systems, receiving unprecedented praise from critics. At Shacknews, it received a perfect 10/10 in our review, and this sentiment was echoed by many other reviewers, as evidenced on Metacritic. However, despite its impressive reception, it has yet to surpass the sales records of two other titles in the Resident Evil series: the Resident Evil 2 remake, which sold 14.5 million copies, and Resident Evil 7, with 14 million units sold, according to Statista.

However, Resident Evil 4 remains a hit in the series for Capcom and there’s no indication it will lose its momentum. As work on Resident Evil 9 gets underway, keep an eye out for updates on this franchise, which we’ll be bringing to you at Shacknews.
