Gameplay

Sales and cultural impact

Is considered a return to the Resident Evil series' roots, having an emphasis on horror and exploration over action and gunplay.

Was projected by developer/publisher Capcom to sell 4 million copies during the game's launch window ending March 2017. However it had sold only 3.7 million copies by July 2017, making it the lowest selling game in the series within the first six months of release. 1
