Good news from Capcom, their zombies franchise reboot (without a lot of zombies) is profitable after only one month of commercialisation.
A bright future for the serie ? After a sixth game that has sold over 6,7 billion units, the seventh game sold 3 billion units all over the world. About 100 000 people try to escape the Baker’s house with the PS VR. We’ll see if a VR PC version boosts the sales.
Capcom wants to sell 4 billion copie until the end of the 2016 fiscal year, it means until the end of march 2017.
Besides Resident Evil, the other zombie game at Capcom, Dead Rising 4, didn’t sale as well. Indeed, the fourth game only sold 700 000 since his debuts in last december. Dead Rising 4 was originally a Microsoft exclusive, it means that it only went out on Xbox One and Windows Store. A Steam version is waited for the 7th of march.
