📺 Resident Evil 4 Remake Shatters Ten-Million Benchmark

How many copies has Resident Evil 4 Remake sold? Capcom confirms the survival-horror overhaul has rocketed past 10 million units, making it the fastest title in the 29-year Resident Evil catalog to hit eight figures, according to the publisher's fiscal briefing and a corroborating, data-driven VGC report on the record-breaking milestone. That surge cements the remake as a cornerstone of Capcom's RE Engine strategy, outpacing Resident Evil 2 Remake's lifetime sell-through in almost half the time. Search terms such as "Resident Evil 4 Remake sales milestone", "fastest-selling RE game", and "Capcom sales record" are now trending on analytics trackers, signaling sustained interest well beyond launch week.

Will Resident Evil 9 follow Resident Evil 4 Remake? Franchise detectives combing the new Resident Evil 4 celebration trailer swear they've spotted a cryptic Umbrella insignia that isn't tied to any known DLC, sparking chatter that Capcom's next numbered sequel is deeper in production than previously assumed. While the publisher remains tight-lipped, the RE Engine's rapid asset pipeline and Capcom's release cadence—three core entries in seven years—make a 2026 launch window plausible. Remember to watch for keywords like "Resident Evil 9 teaser", "Umbrella hint", and "Capcom next survival horror game" as SEO magnets in the months ahead.

📺 Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Blasts Past Half-Million Day-One Sales

How many copies did Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 sell on day one? The watercolor-steampunk RPG from Sandfall Interactive shifted over 500,000 units in its first 24 hours, as confirmed by IGN's dedicated sales report. For a debut IP launched into a crowded April calendar, those numbers are extraordinary, immediately driving Google queries such as "Expedition 33 first-day sales", "best-selling new RPG 2025", and "Clair Obscur Steam charts". Viewers eager to master the fast-paced break-gauge combat can dive into IGN's beginner's combat guide video for an algorithm-friendly tutorial.

Is Expedition 33 on track for a million sales? Considering that the official Expedition 33 social-media milestone tweet amassed 2.3 million impressions in under 12 hours and the Steam review ratio sits at a glowing 93 percent, analysts expect the JRPG-laced adventure to cross the seven-figure threshold within its first fortnight. Growth phrases such as "Expedition 33 roadmap", "first DLC announcement", and "console port release date" are already surfacing, signalling search-engine gold for content creators and storefront curators alike.

📺 Days Gone Sequel Demands Surge After PS5 Remaster Drop

Is Sony developing a Days Gone sequel? Officially, Bend Studio has not announced Days Gone 2, but fan appetite is roaring back thanks to the PS5 and PS5 Pro-optimized remaster, whose launch trailer lit up the PlayStation YouTube channel's comment section with thousands of "greenlight the next chapter" pleas. Phrases such as "Days Gone 2 petition", "Bend Studio next project", and "open-world biker sequel release date" climbed into Google's top autofill suggestions within 48 hours of the video going live, illustrating pent-up demand Sony cannot ignore without opportunity cost.

How to play Days Gone Remastered on PS5 and PS5 Pro? Simply head to the PlayStation Store, select the free upgrade if you already own the PS4 edition, or purchase the standalone 4K60 package; the download weighs in at 58 GB and unlocks adaptive-trigger haptic feedback plus near-instant rest mode resumes. SEO-rich queries such as "Days Gone remaster download size", "performance mode frame rate", and "PS5 Pro fidelity mode benchmarks" are surging, so expect tech-analysis outlets to benchmark Deacon's Oregon soon.
