Capcom has announced that Resident Evil 7 has shipped 4.8 million units worldwide. In other words, the Japanese company has shipped 700k more units in its 3rd Quarter FY3/2018. For what it’s worth, Capcom targets 10 million lifetime unit sales for RE7 and it appears that this latest Resident Evil game won’t hit that goal.
Resident Evil 7 biohazard Gold Edition was released on December 12th, 2017, alongside the Not a Hero free DLC. Capcom has not announced any new DLC plans for Resident Evil 7 so we don’t know whether the company will invest further time, effort and money on it.
In other news, Street Fighter V and Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite have shipped only 100k units worldwide in Capcom’s 3rd Quarter FY3/2018. While things may improve for Street Fighter V, as the Arcade Edition has just come out, we are pretty sure that the latest Marvel vs Capcom game has flopped.
Last but not least, Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen has shipped two million units so far (200K units in the third quarter), Dead Rising 4 has finally shipped one million units, and Resident Evil 5,6, HD, 0 HD and Revelations 2 have shipped 100K additional units in the third quarter.

Well Optimised even for Older H/W.
More stupidity.
Please stop.
It took Resident Evil 4 10 years and 5 re-releases to sell 10 million copies and it was still outsold by RE5.
Lifetime sales means lifetime. RE7 has been out 1 year. To have sold 5 million copies in 1 year for an RE game is actually extremely good, ESPECIALLY with the army of RE4+ fangirls who did their absolute best to smear this game and dissuade people from buying it, and acted like “This isn’t an RE game.” and ESPECIALLY after the complete abortion that was RE6 entirely shattered most peoples interest and confidence in this franchise.
That’s extremely positive news that it sold 5 million.
it was a boring a*s year but I never finished re6, even though it was the only game left to play. Thats how much it sucked.
You are sincerely not missing anything. It’s terrible. The best part of the game was Ada Wong’s solo campaign which you had to beat the entire game to unlock. Now that is available up front and they gave her a teammate too so it’s not the same. It’s a very bad game. Good for messing around and kungfu fighting zombies with a friend, but nothing else.
It does have the best mercenaries mode in the franchise, though.
Where’s my VR patch? You said 1 year, it’s been over a year now.
