Well, not every Resident Evil game can be a winner. Sure, the remake of Resident Evil 3 wasn’t as big of a hit as the Resident Evil 2 remake, but that all pales in comparison to the recent iOS port of Resident Evil 7: biohazard, which has sold around 2,000 units since its launch earlier this month.
Per Mobilegamer.biz, the port of Capcom’s 2017 hit has been downloaded just over 83,000 times since it was released on July 2, with under 2,000 users deciding to plunk their money down to unlock the full game. This has translated into Resident Evil 7 earning Capcom an estimated $28,140 on iOS, and that doesn’t include Apple’s cut of the revenue.
It also probably doesn’t help that Resident Evil 7 is only playable on iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max, and iPads with an M1 chipset. Products that Resident Evil fans aren’t going to be spending money on to play a game that, in all honesty, is better suited for console or PC. Plus, RE7 is cheaper on those platforms, with Sony’s Summer Sale even offering up a discount for the base game.
This doesn’t bode well for the upcoming iOS port of Resident Evil 2, which is currently still in the process of being developed for iPhone and iPad.
