By all accounts, this year's remake of Resident Evil 2 from Capcom has been enormously successful, and is one of the best games of the year so far. According to the publisher, it shipped over three million copies on all platforms in its first week alone, but we're more interested in how Resident Evil 2 has sold on PC - especially how it compares, sales-wise, to the other Resident Evil games.
Fortunately, it seems that Resident Evil 2 is performing really well on PC, as the game has now sold over a million copies on Steam - or more specifically, has over a million owners on Steam, so this includes anyone who bought a Steam key from other sellers.
By comparison, the previous game in the series, the slightly-divisive first-person Resident Evil 7, has not yet broken a million owners on Steam in its lifetime - so the remake of Resident Evil 2 has completely outperformed it. That's despite the remake only being out for two months, and Resident Evil 7 being available for over two years.
