Resident Evil sells 23 million as the wait for Devil May Cry 6 begins
Capcom has reported strong sales figures for the fiscal year ending March 2026, with the Resident Evil franchise selling 23 million units and Devil May Cry 5 achieving its best year with 2.7 million copies sold. The success of Devil May Cry 5, boosted by a Netflix series and discounts, makes a sixth installment likely, though its development may be impacted by director Hideaki Itsuno's departure.
