The Resident Evil franchise will be taking on a new form with the launch of Resident Evil VII early next year, and Capcom has been revisiting the classics in the meantime. Resident Evil HD remaster was a success last year, selling over 1 million copies, and Capcom followed it up with an HD remaster of Resident Evil 0 earlier this year.

This has also proven to be a successful venture, as Capcom reports that it has now eclipsed 1.1 million copies worldwide since launch. By comparison, the original

Resident Evil 0 on GameCube has sold 1.25 million copies to date since releasing in 2002. Capcom is also planning a full remake (as opposed to a simple remaster) of Resident Evil 2, continuing their trend of dusting off the classics.
