Capcom officially ended the life of its unsuccessful multiplayer project Resident Evil Re:Verse and closed the game servers on June 30, 2025. This step was a logical end for the game, which has not gained popularity among players since its launch in October 2022.
Resident Evil Re:Verse's Disappointing Journey
Originally released as an addition to Resident Evil Village for the 25th anniversary of the series, Re:Verse offered a PvP mode featuring the famous characters of the series. However, inadequate content and technical problems immediately caused a wave of criticism. Before shutting down the project completely, Capcom gradually reduced its support: in the spring of 2025, the game disappeared from digital stores, after which the developers disabled in-game purchases.
Why Did It Fail? Re:Verse from Players' Eyes
Resident Evil There are many reasons behind the failure of Re:Verse. The most important of these is the inadequacy of the content offered by the game. Players complained about game modes that quickly became repetitive and boring. Additionally, technical issues also negatively affected the gaming experience. Server problems, disconnections and errors prevented players from enjoying the game.
Steam Statistics: The Bitter End of the Project
Statistics obtained from the Steam service clearly reveal the unsuccessful position of the project. On the last day of its closure, the number of concurrent players was only 96 people, and the highest number of concurrent players in the game's history did not exceed 2,100. These numbers show how much Re:Verse has lost interest among gamers.
Capcom and the Multiplayer Resident Evil Universe: A New Beginning?
This closure marks another failed attempt by Capcom to create a successful multiplayer project in the Resident Evil universe. However, this does not mean that Capcom will stop offering multiplayer experiences in the future. The company can learn from this failure and try again by designing better content, more solid technical infrastructure and a game that meets players' expectations. Fans of the Resident Evil series hope to see a more successful and popular multiplayer Resident Evil game in the future.
Another important point to note is Capcom's commitment to the Resident Evil series and its constant pursuit of innovation. This failed project can be considered part of the company's learning process and offer valuable lessons for future projects. Resident Evil fans maintain hope for the future of the series and believe that Capcom will develop even better games by taking advantage of these experiences.
