New ‘Resident Evil’ has sold 2.8M units on PlayStation 5, says Alinea Analytics

Capcom’s (CCOEY) “Resident Evil Requiem” continues to have incredible success on PlayStation 5 (SONY), clearing 2.8M units sold in the platform and 1.9M in March alone, according to Alinea Analytics’ Rhys Elliott. Though “Requiem” sold more units at launch on Steam than any other platform, including PS5, Xbox Series (MSFT), and Nintendo Switch 2 (NTDOY), the game has actually made more money on PlayStation, generating over $200M in gross revenue on PS5 versus Steam’s $167M, Elliott said. The difference is due to regional pricing and different geographical distribution of Steam’s audience, Elliott noted.
