According to the website <a href=\"https:\/\/mobilegamer.biz\/resident-evil-2-struggles-to-100k-as-triple-a-flops-continue\/\"><strong>mobilegamer.biz<\/strong><\/a>, <strong>Resident Evil 2<\/strong> for <strong>iPhone<\/strong> hasn\u2019t sold very well. It seems the game sold fewer than 10,000 copies. This issue is common with other games transitioning from consoles to mobile as well.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>iPhone 15 Pro<\/strong> launched promising a gaming experience almost identical to a console, with support from companies like Capcom, Ubisoft, and even Kojima Productions. However, things don\u2019t seem to be going so well. Even <strong>Resident Evil VII<\/strong>, which was quite successful, reportedly sold only about 2,000 copies on the <strong>iPhone<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The website also revealed that the Resident Evil 2 remake, released for mobile last year, didn\u2019t resonate much with the audience. Apparently, only around 9,500 people purchased the game. Despite a low launch price of about $10, revenue was modest at roughly $100,000. Meanwhile, console versions of the game continue to perform well. Assassin\u2019s Creed: Mirage saw similar results, generating around $496,000 in revenue, which translates to approximately 9,920 players.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Didn\u2019t Sales Take Off?<\/strong><br \/>\nEven with the iPhone 15 Pro and 16 offering excellent processing power to handle demanding games, it seems people don\u2019t use their phones for gaming in the same way they use a portable console. Even though the game allows a single purchase to play on both Mac and iPhone, and supports Bluetooth controllers, holding a phone horizontally for long gaming sessions might not be very comfortable.<\/p>\n<p>In the author\u2019s opinion, even with a controller, if the goal is to have a portable console experience, the game should work well out of the box without requiring accessories. Not to mention that for extended play sessions, the phone needs to stay plugged in for charging. Players notice these factors when they test the game\u2019s free version.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is There Still Hope?<\/strong><br \/>\nThese sales numbers were calculated over just one month. Perhaps things will change in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/mobilegamer.biz\/resident-evil-2-struggles-to-100k-as-triple-a-flops-continue\/\"><strong>MobileGamer.biz<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AAA games are not having an easy time on the iOS system.
