Resident Evil is hot! RE7 tops three million worldwide sales, movies eclipse a billion

Good news, bad news

Recommended Videos

The only thing clicking more than my left mouse button right now is Resident Evil. While I need to fix this little rodent, Capcom needs not change any formula as Resident Evil 7 has now sold more than three million copies worldwide whereas the recent film Resident Evil: The Final Chapter has pushed the “total global box-office” past a billion dollars.

I have yet to personally play the game, I’m holding out until I can get a PlayStation VR, but I hear nothing but great things about it and its new direction. I love it when risks in changing the formula are rewarded with success, not that every series needs to change direction with every release. On the other hand I did have the displeasure of seeing The Final Chapter in 4D. Why do so many people still watch those?
