Windows Central’s take

Windows Central’s take

Capcom has mustered an incredible roster of Resident Evil games over the last few years. Since 2017, the company has released Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, Resident Evil 2 remake, Resident Evil 3 remake, Resident Evil Village, and now the Resident Evil 4 remake. I don’t think I’m alone in wanting to go back to each and every one of them in the years ahead.

For a prediction, I’m expecting to see Resident Evil 4 remake reached 8 million copies sold before the end of the year.
