Resident Evil Requiem is off to a huge start, and it’s not slowing down. Capcom has confirmed that the latest entry has already crossed 6 million copies sold, making it the fastest-selling game in the series.
That number comes just days after launch. The game had already hit 5 million in its first five days, so this jump shows just how strong the momentum is. It is clear that players have shown up in a big way for this release.
The response has not just been about sales either. The game is also getting strong user scores, sitting at 9.4 on Metacritic. That puts it right near the very top of recent releases.
