Resident Evil Village Completion Rates Impressively High
It's a common observation that many players don't finish games they start. Completion rates are often surprisingly low, with more than 50% of players rarely seeing a game through to the end. For expansive adventures and RPGs, this figure can dip as low as 20% (even for major titles like Red Dead Redemption II and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt), though well-crafted and engaging experiences tend to see slightly higher engagement.
In this context, the completion figures for Resident Evil Village are remarkably high. An analysis by Ungeek examining the achievement/trophy for completing the game on PC and PlayStation 5 revealed impressive numbers: 70% on Steam and 67% on PlayStation 5. These are already strong results, but they are even more striking on Xbox. Neogaf users checked how many Xbox Series S/X players unlocked the 'Rookie Agent' achievement ('Complete the main story on at least Casual difficulty'), with the figure reaching an outstanding 90%.
Essentially, it appears that Resident Evil Village is a game that people are buying and actually playing to completion. Several factors likely contribute to this. The game is widely considered to be very good, relatively short, and accessible to finish. Its story-driven nature also motivates players to see the conclusion. Furthermore, the absence of the game on subscription services at the time of these statistics likely means the numbers are primarily composed of direct purchasers, further inflating the perceived completion rate.
Regardless, these figures are exceptional for Capcom and suggest that players are genuinely satisfied, as they are seeing this thrilling adventure through to its end rather than moving on to other titles. (Note: As achievements are not present on the Switch, data for this platform is unavailable.)
