[QUOTE="Admin, post: 60052, member: 1"] [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/resident-evil-2']Capcom’s Resident Evil 2 remake[/URL] has sold more copies than any other title in the horror franchise’s 27-year history, after passing 12.6 million cumulative lifetime sales across console and PC. Earlier this week Capcom updated its sales record for the 114 ‘[URL='https://www.capcom.co.jp/ir/english/business/million.html']platinum’ titles[/URL]' the company has created throughout the years that have sold through one million units. The new list, which takes into account games sold up until the June 30 cutoff, revealed that Capcom's Resident Evil 2 remake has now sold over 12.6 million units since its Januray 2019 launch. 12.6 million sales is enough to place the remake at the top of the franchise’s best-seller list, dethroning the previous record holder Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, which has sold 12.4 million copies In the six years since its January 2017 release. It also made the Resident Evil 2 remake the third best-selling game in the history of the company, with only 2021's [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/monster-hunter-rise']Monster Hunter Rise[/URL] (13.2 million units), and 2018's [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/monster-hunter-world']Monster Hunter World[/URL] (19 million units) surpassing its record.

[URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/2019/01/22/resident-evil-2-review']In IGN’s 9/10 review[/URL] we lauded the satisfying combat and horrifying atmosphere showcased in Capcom’s remake of Resident Evil 2, while concluding that the title “establishes a new standard for remaking classic games”.
