The last numbers we had for the franchise was this

With the last info on RE2 being that it shipped 3 million (Here: https://www.destructoid.com/residen...-reports-3-million-units-shipped-540714.phtml).

Looks like a lot of people are enjoying RE2 and these new switch ports will be pushing the franchise even higher in it's numbers more than likely.

 

[ZeroCDR]

Well deserved

I'm so happy to hear this!

Favorite franchise getting stronger!!

 

[SofNascimento]

I wonder how many Resident Evil games I've bought. RE5 alone makes it 4.

 

[Chaos2Frozen]

King of the Horror Style.

Resident Evil is one of the most iconic IP's in gaming. Well deserved.

One of my favorite series ever. Awesome.

 

[Napalm_Frank]

I'm just glad 7 managed to save the franchise from the brink. No joke it's my favourite ongoing franchise once again.

 

[Sesha]

Only 4 mill? Bomba confirmed.

King of action horror and survival horror. Well deserved.

Considering the time she's been away, she has to be in two of the next three RE games! (one being R3make).

Anyone know what RE 7 is at sales wise?

Okay. Nice. Thanks Jawmuncher. Appreciate it.

 

[TreIII]

After RE5 and 6 hit the Switch, I'll be more than down for a Revelations 3 that takes over thematically where they left off with being "survival action".

 

[-Le Monde-]

Yes. Yes.

There are three games in development?

I can't wait to see her new model. Not sure if they're using real people, but Leon, and Claire look amazing. Chris looks nice too.

According to Dusk Golem, yes. R3make, RE8 and another one.

 

[Lifejumper]

Think we going to see RE8 before REMAKE 3.

R3make, RE8 and Revelations 3 probably.

 

[KtotheRoc]

Capcom's biggest franchise. For good reason.

 

[TRUE ORDER]

Well deserved, one of my favorite franchises. Can't wait for REmake 3!!

This a million times! RE8 starring Jill as the main character please!!

I love this new Capcom. <3
I can't even imagine what Resident Evil will look like on next gen systems.

Wonder if they are going episodic with REV 3 again.

I think I've bought about 19 or 20 resident evil games including double/triple dips and re-releases. Hard to pin down the number lol.

I know, but RE5, and RE6 weren't amazing by RE standards. It wasn't until Revelations that the series started getting back on track imo.

RE5 is definitive action RE game and story/lore peak of the series.

That's a very accurate statement.

Capcom never went anywhere. Some of y'all just couldn't handle the awesomness of Action RE.

To me it felt like RE4 minus all the magic that made it so special. Still an enjoyable game. Also, Jill should've gotten the last shot.

 

[Hokey]

I will be happy to play RE games for the rest of my life - It will always be my fave game series because of my history with it.

One day RE5 will be remade and that crime will be amended.

But Sheva's awesome. Just give Jill a third Rocket Launcher.

 

[e1it3g4m3r]

I loved 5 and 6. Not as much as 4 or some of the others like RE2 remake/revelations1&2 but they were still great games.

My thoughts exactly! Hell of a return to form. I remember feeling a bit depressed playing REmake HD on release as it seemed like we wouldn't get another game in the style again.

I'd settle for Jill killing Wesker clone, if there is one.
