‘Resident Evil VII’ Reaches 3.5 Million Units Sold

Published

Capcom released their year-end financial results on Friday, and the results bode well for fans of Resident Evil, but not so much for fans of Dead Rising.

According to the figures, Resident Evil VII, which was projected to sell 4 million units, sold 3.5 million units across PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. The report, however, considers this a “solid overall performance”. Likewise, the re-releases of other games in the series last year, such as Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 6, also performed well.

Meanwhile, Dead Rising 4, which was projected to sell two million units, underperformed at less than a million units sold. To add insult to injury, the port of Resident Evil 6 sold 1 million units. Ouch. Combined with the lukewarm reception by critics and fans for Dead Rising 4, the future doesn’t look good for another entry anytime soon.

To see the report for yourself (which is really just numbers and figures), head here. Now where’s that Resident Evil 2 remake, Capcom?

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere can be seen trapped inside.

You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
