Back in January 2019, Capcom ushered in a new era in its history with the remake of Resident Evil 2. The Japanese company subsequently modernized several other titles in the series to complete critical and commercial success almost every time.

Seven and a half years later, Capcom announced that Resident Evil 2 has surpassed 20 million players. This figure appears to include direct sales and users subscribed to services such as PlayStation Plus, which included the title.

According to the latest reports, Resident Evil 2 has sold 19.75 million copies. This makes it the best-selling game in the franchise.
