Sales for Resident Evil 4 Remake continue to surge, with the title now surpassing 7 million sales in under a year. This achievement marks a record for Capcom, who were previously satisfied with the performance of the Resident Evil 2 remake, which sold 5 million copies within the same time frame of 12 months. This indicates that publishers are eager to produce more remakes as the public continues to respond positively. It is noteworthy that according to Christophe Gans, in an interview we conducted in June 2022, it was the success of Resident Evil remakes in 2019 and 2020 that prompted Konami to revive the Silent Hill saga with both remakes and new episodes. Overall, if all parties benefit—publishers, studios, and players alike—it can be considered a win-win situation as marketing experts would describe it.
