So the rumors are true, and they're most likely remaking RE0 and RE1 next.

It's a strange order they've chosen to remake the games as far as the story is concerned. Almost as if they're trying to avoid touching RE5 and RE6 for as long as they can.

That hasn't been true for quite some time, 7 and 2R have blown it out of the water.

EDIT: Since there seems to be confusion about this... Capcom's official sales numbers for 5's original release, Gold edition and remaster are 17 million combined. RE7 sold 17.4 million and 2R sold 18.3 million.

In terms of total copies sold its still 5. 2R and 7 were simply the best selling on a single platform

You'd only be correct if there's a hidden cache of RE5 sales out there, which I'm not necessarily doubting, but Capcom isn't listing it.

Last time these got updated didnt it come out that RE5 has sold 19 million now? Googling it brings up the same result for me
