Can you believe Resident Evil Village is still smashing it out of the park? When it launched back in May, it was celebrated as it reached 3 million sales, and now here we are 1.5 million sales later with another milestone.
Capcom confirmed the news on Resident Evil's official Japanese Twitter account. It reads: "The cumulative worldwide sales of "Resident Evil Village" has exceeded 4.5 million", and also goes on to entice those who haven't played the game to check it out.
It's currently ahead of Resident Evil VII at the same period of time, which moved 3.5 million copies after nine weeks. While its grand total is now sitting around 9 million, it appears Resident Evil Village may be set to beat it in the long run.
With the confirmation at E3 2021 that Resident Evil Village will be getting post-launch support, we imagine the sales number will rise alongside its new content. There's no word on what that content will entail yet, but its said to be bouncing off the success of the game, so will no doubt cater to what the community is desperate to see.
Are you one of the 4.5 million sales for Resident Evil Village? Drop us a comment and let us know.

Congratulations! Capcom is one of the best developers in the world. I just wish that they go back to (optional at the very least, before the replies come) third-person view and a bit more classic horror. I don't like first-person view in Resident Evil. Code Veronica remake next, please! 😊
I really enjoyed Resident Evil Village. It's one of the few games where I actually went back a few times just to get some Achievements for the heck of it. I won't get them all, but I had a blast getting what I was able to get.
Let me predict the Pushsquare version of this article.
"Resident Evil 8 has sold 4.5m copies. 80% sold on PS4/PS5".
My personal GOTY so far.
Superb game with lots of replicability.
Hopefully the future DLC is story based on not Mercenaries, as that was the only let down of the game for me.
@Richnj is that true?
If the DLC is entirely about Tall Woman, the total sales will end up being the highest in the series.
@AgentGuapo Not that I know of, but given the trends, I wouldn't be surprised.
I loved Village up to the Benevenito House then it fell off a cliff for me
