Capcom took to social media to celebrate and thank players after Resident Evil Veronica reached over 2 million wishlists across multiple platforms, including Steam, PSN, Xbox Live, and the Nintendo Store. The milestone highlights strong player interest in the next remake of the franchise, which is slated for release in 2027.
To commemorate the milestone, Capcom shared an image featuring one of the remake’s new characters, accompanied by a lighthearted promise of 2 million cookies for players who wishlisted the title.
While wishlist counts do not guarantee actual sales, given that conversion rates vary per game and many players either wishlist without buying at launch or purchase without wishlisting, they remain a critical metric for developers:
The original Resident Evil Code: Veronica debuted in 2000 as an exclusive for SEGA’s Dreamcast, followed a year later by a PlayStation 2 port titled Code: Veronica X.
The remake is currently in development by key members of the dev team behind the recent remakes of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 4.
Capcom is actively making narrative adaptations to align the story of Resident Evil Veronica with the modernized continuity of the main series.
