Resident Evil 7: biohazard launched worldwide in late January, quickly becoming a hit among both long-time series fans and franchise newcomers. And less than a year after its release, that initial acclaim is paying off. Capcom reports Resident Evil 7 has sold 4.1 million units since launch between PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.

According to Capcom's latest sales numbers, Resident Evil 7 is Capcom's eighth best-selling title. The survival horror title is sandwiched right between Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate at seventh and Monster Hunter 4 at ninth, making it one of Capcom's top 10 games in circulation. In comparison, Resident Evil 7 has sold more copies than Resident Evil 3 Nemesis, which currently sits at 12th with 3.5 million games purchased.

Resident Evil 7: biohazard isn't the best-selling Resident Evil game of all-time, however. That distinction currently goes to Resident Evil 5, which rests at 7.2 million units, followed by Resident Evil 6 with 7 million units sold. Both games top Capcom's best-selling titles at first and second place, respectively, with Resident Evil 2 clocking in at fourth place with 4.96 million units.

It's unclear for now if Resident Evil 7 will surpass Resident Evil 2 in the coming months ahead. But it could happen by next year. Gematsu reports that Resident Evil 7 gained 600,000 sales since April 2017, and with the holiday season coming up, more units may be sold during the season in the coming months ahead. Either way, Resident Evil 7: biohazard is available now for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.


Glad to hear it's doing well. it deserves it.

Good, Capcom should be rewarded for a good job, for a while there Monster Hunter was the only series they were doing a good job on.

Most if not all RE games can be completed in much less time than that. My first run of RE2 only took like 5 hours.

I played RE7 for the first time a few days ago, it's really good so far.

My first run I put 9 hours into it and did everything you can do in a normal run. It's a very solid game with some good spooks.

It's a shame 5 and 6 are the highest selling. Five is actually fun if you have someone to co-op with, but 6 was just a train wreck. It was garbage.

Glad to see 7 do well though. It deserves it, and is one of the most underrated new releases of 2017.

6 honesty wasnt a bad co-op action game.

It was just an abysmal RE entry.

Would be like if the next uncharted was about Nathan drake being tortured and raped in a werid demonic dream realm.

Might be a good horror game but not a good uncharted

Glad to hear it's doing so well in under its first year out. I really hope Capcom sees this and understands that the series should return to its roots. I can see why RE5 sold so well. It was a great action RE title with a lot of quality and content to it. RE6 likely sold so much because the price drop on it occurred only a few months after launch. It got that bad of a reputation, and still does to this day. It started out selling very strong from what I remember, but quickly steamrolled into a giant clusterfuck when enough people played it. The game is about five years old now, so I could see how it got seven million in lifetime sales after the massive drop in price.

the partner system of newer games makes more sense than the older ones.
no matter what game in the series everyone has a partner character
but in the classic RE games they keep suggesting they split up in zombie infested locations which at some point just seems suicidal

You say that but there's plenty of idiotic decisons and "Let's split up" in RE5 and 6
