I updated my previous list of the top 14 Resident Evil titles based on Capcom's updated listing ending 2020 (December 31st, 2020 numbers).
I was looking at Capcom's sales numbers for all their top selling titles (that sold over one million units) and sifted through the data and made a list of only
the top 14 Resident Evil titles at the end of 2020, I put the same titles together (includes all rereleases and iterations) and below are the results; just thought
the people here might find it interesting and I'm still curious what people think... bottom line it continues to show a strong following for the numbered titles in the series
and likely we are also going to see strong sales for the future upcoming Resident Evil: Village and very strong sales numbers for the still unofficial and rumored Resident Evil 4 Remake...
No changes in placement from the June report for 2020; the highlights are Resident Evil 3(2020) pushing the largest sales growth since June of 2020, adding .9 million units sold (officially overtaking the original in total sales), and Resident Evil 2(2019) and Resident Evil 7 tied for second in growth both adding .6 million and third was Resident Evil 4 adding .4 million units to their final totals. If Resident Evil 3(2020) sales track similar for 2021 then it will likely outsell Resident Evil 7 by years end; however due to the upcoming release of 7's sequel Village, Resident Evil 7 may keep it's lead.
