While Capcom has kept the price tag under wraps for now, anticipation is building, and details on preorders are expected to surface soon.

Since its launch in March 2023, the remake of the 2005 classic Resident Evil 4 has been a blockbuster success, quickly selling over three million copies in its opening days and reaching six million in the following months. Its blend of horror, action, and meticulously crafted gameplay has not only won the hearts of long-time fans but also attracted new ones, earning it a perfect score in reviews for revitalizing the franchise.

The Resident Evil series, developed by Capcom, made its debut in 1996, setting a new standard for the survival horror genre. Originally titled “Biohazard” in Japan, the franchise has expanded significantly over the years, evolving from its roots in fixed camera angles and pre-rendered backgrounds to embrace first-person and over-the-shoulder viewpoints. The saga is renowned for its blend of action, puzzle-solving, and horror elements, revolving around the sinister Umbrella Corporation and the outbreak of the T-virus, leading to widespread zombie and monster infestations. Over decades, Resident Evil has grown into a vast universe, including video games, movies, novels, and more, maintaining its status as a cultural icon in horror and video gaming.
