Resident Evil Requiem sales reach over 6 million

Capcom announced today that Resident Evil Requiem, released on February 27, 2026, reached over 6 million units sold, which is the fastest that a Resident Evil game has reached this milestone. It was just revealed on March 4, just a week after its release, that it had sold just 5 million copies. 

The publisher shared that they will be celebrating 30 years of Resident Evil on March 22, 2026. Capcom has a collaboration between Universal Studios Japan and Resident Evil Requiem in 2026, and orchestral concerts in Japan, the US, and Europe.

Resident Evil Requiem released for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC via Steam. The same day release on the Switch 2 likely helped the sales for the game. Fans had reported it was hard to find a copy of the game for Switch 2 in stores and online.
