Resident Evil Village is the most pre-ordered Resident Evil game in India. Although the series usually sees steady sales through the launch window of each entry, Capcom has officially surpassed every game in the Resident Evil Village pre-order and sales franchise since 2008 selling its games in the country.
On the anonymous situation, the game store owner said, “Resident Evil 2 and 3 remakes sold well only after the Resident Evil 7 launch window.” “Village pre-orders are consistent with the order in which they are released and the good reviews ensure that they surpass all those games.”

“We sold the PS4 out of stock during pre-orders,” said one owner. “PS5 and Xbox sold out by launch day.”
According to IGN, they were told that most pre-orders and sales were for the PS4 version because the console had the largest install base – close to 500,000.
Interestingly, it came at a time when most states in the country were in lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic. However, in states like Maharashtra, which do not allow unnecessary deliveries, game sales have not stopped for a while.
The reason for this: Logistics companies provide pin codes regardless of lockdown restrictions in the country, allowing the distribution of physical games. While some game stores have taken to Instagram seeking the support of victims to push pre-orders. Thus, despite the ongoing epidemic, Sony was able to gain revenue along with customer disk copies.
