Around 70% of PC players and 66.9% of PlayStation 5 players completed the game—a testament to its captivating gameplay, even with its linear structure. On Steam, 70% of players unlocked the “Rookie Agent” achievement by completing the game on any difficulty, meaning they experienced the full story and saw the final credits. The completion rate remains impressively high at 64.2% even when considering only those who finished the game on the standard difficulty. By comparison, Resident Evil: Village has a 48% completion rate on Steam, while the remake of Resident Evil 4 has a 53% completion rate.
