Capcom has officially announced the latest entry into the Resident Evil franchise, Resident Evil Village, has sold 3 million units in less than a week since its launch.
The announcement also comparing the game to Resident Evil 7 which sold 2.5 million units in the same time frame and a total of 8.5 million units as of December 31st 2020:
The Resident Evil franchise features survival horror games in which players utilize a variety of weapons and other items to escape terrifying situations. Cumulative shipments of the games in the series now exceed 100 million units since the first title debuted in 1996. Now, more than 25 years later, continuous support from the passionate fan base across the globe makes it Capcom’s flagship game series.
Representing the eighth main entry in the series, the new Resident Evil Village is the sequel to Resident Evil 7 biohazard (which has gone on to ship a cumulative 8.5 million units as of December 31, 2020) and features a higher degree of action and even more expansive, highly-engaging gameplay. In the game, players take on the role of protagonist Ethan Winters as they delve into a new kind of survival horror set in a mysterious, icy village. Built with Capcom’s proprietary RE ENGINE, the game maximizes the potential of next-generation devices to deliver stunning, photorealistic visuals while utilizing cutting-edge audio technology. This, along with praise for the deeply immersive experience from fans following the game’s demo, resulted in worldwide shipments of the title surpassing 3 million units.
Resident Evil Village is already available for the PS5, PS4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, PC, and Stadia.
Well, of course. Its Biohazard after all, a big title.
So, braindead idiots will dig it, no matter what. Including no matter what Capcom does, pandering to the western retardation big time or clearly stating that “Horror should have some sections with flowers and sunshine in it to lower the tension”.
But hey, at least i will give Capcom this (for now): They arent selling 1/5 of the whole game for the full price unlike some other japanese dev that is pandering to the west big time as well and thus is beyond saving (we all know who it is).
its going to sell well for 2 things covid and the lack of new titles. The thing is i dont think people really care much how the game is and just go with the flow and will just say its good to fit in. Really its just meh to ok but nothing special. Capcom move to focus on graphics and realistic models are to much akin to western games even to the gameplay itself. And as a Japanese game company its sad since they used to focus in gameplay first then graphics. Honestly RE and capcom lost its touch after RE 6 which was around 2013 i think.
Herd mentality is a thing, yep. You’d be surprised how many smoothbrains out there experience this ‘fomo’ thing and will swallow any amount of stupid bullshit just to be accepted in the ‘in’ group. Of course, years from now, I’d be willing to bet money that retrospectively the same people who rave about this game will be calling it mediocre trash. People are wonderful.
i play VNs only so i dont actually know
In a way, FFVII is a VN.
Chen-04 is gay.
Upvote if you doubley agree and think Biden is a crook who stole the election.
Downvote if you agree without any shadow of a doubt.
If the Devs stopped taking holidays and excuses for illnesses, and started making updates again.
Every Dev wants to do the same thing as that scoundrel from Icstor, do some episodes and milk patreons !
Crapcom discovered the wheel … sex sells … they stopped listening to sjws about breasts and sexualization of women and are swimming in money ..
There you go. Crapcom manages to bait the normies again with a vampire lady meme, while censoring any sexiness in their games and making them journo easy.
What? There wasn’t any censorship with Lady D.
What is there to censor about her? These days Crapcom are making safe designs from the get go. I was talking their tendency to butcher any sexiness in games like SFV and DMC5.
But Lady D. face is ugly.
when you censor something in dev doesnt mean its not censored
How much do they need to sell to break even?
Game is boring AF. Way too many instances of aimless wandering over finding something to kill. If you hate lots of combat and want lots of walking while being talked at in your horror games, then this is your game.
So pretty much people over hyping it now as capcom calls this a success in the Hope that everyone forgets they’re still intending to go the woke route because this will be their example of how they claim you supported it.
Jesus christ this comment section…looks like the schitzo retards are out at full force again.
lol who hurt you 16:51?
Hey man, I know, it’s okay..you got swept up in the hype train and it’s not what you wanted it to be. It’s okay man. It’s okay to be disappointed. We can talk about it. Just slow down..breathe, we can talk through it. It’s gonna be okay.
yep they lonely lost souls
