The latest Resident Evil on iPhone has reportedly been purchased by less than 2,000 people.
Resident Evil 7 : Biohazard is the latest game in the series to make the jump to Apple devices, releasing on the App Store at the start of this month. While it's still pretty early, it seems things aren't off to a great start. In a new report for Mobile Gamer, the outlet looked at estimated profits for Resident Evil 7 obtained from Appmagic. According to that report, the game has only made $28,140, which is the figure before Apple 's profit. With the game currently priced at $19.
News of the game's underperformance follows a report from Mobile Gamer last month that a number of AAA games have been struggling to find an audience on iOS devices. While iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max might be able to handle games like Resident Evil 7, Assassin's Creed Mirage, and the remake of Resident Evil 4, there hasn't been a lot of interest from users.
Mobil Gamer has speculated that Apple could be luring companies like Capcom and Ubisoft with generous deals to bring AAA games to iOS, but there's no way of knowing for certain. It would make sense, as Apple has used the presence of these games to showcase the power of the current iPhone and iPad models.
While it might not make sense for Capcom to keep pumping out games on iOS, we know of at least one more game in the Resident Evil series that will be coming to the platform. Capcom previously announced a port of 2019's Resident Evil 2 remake, which will be released sometime this year. At this time, an official release date has not been announced.
