The gaming world is experiencing a groundbreaking move as Apple strengthens its presence in the AAA gaming industry. One of the most exciting announcements is the upcoming release of "Resident Evil 4" for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. This legendary game is available for pre-order now. Below, we'll cover everything you need to know about this exciting adventure, its pricing, and the ins and outs of in-app purchases.
Capcom, the developer behind "Resident Evil," has big plans. In 2023, not only "Resident Evil 4" but also "Resident Evil Village" will be released on iOS devices. The exciting news is that both games will be available as free downloads on the App Store, although an in-app purchase will be required to unlock the full gaming experience. What makes purchasing "Resident Evil 4" even more attractive is the universal unlocking that applies to your Apple ID. This means you can purchase the game on your iPhone and then play it on your iPad or Mac without having to pay again. Great news for Apple fans who value seamless transitions between their devices.
Pricing: How much does Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil Village cost on iOS?
However, we should note that this is an in-app purchase and not a subscription. This could mean that the game cannot be shared with family members, which could be challenging for some. Whether Capcom will offer Family Sharing in the future remains to be seen. The prices of the games are also of interest. "Resident Evil 4" will launch on the App Store at a price of €69.99. This price is the same as for the PlayStation and Xbox, which is quite justified given the quality of the game. Pre-registration for "Resident Evil 4" is already possible and may prove to be a smart move to ensure you can play the game immediately upon release.
In contrast, "Resident Evil Village" was originally released in 2021 and is therefore slightly more affordable, priced at €39.99. Interestingly, the Mac version of "Resident Evil Village" is currently even more affordable, costing €29.99 if purchased separately. It's worth noting, however, that the App Store listing currently only shows the iPad version of "Resident Evil Village," with no information on the iPhone or Mac versions. It remains unclear whether there will be a universal in-app purchase option for all three devices in the future.

Overall, the release of "Resident Evil 4" for iPhone, iPad, and Mac promises to be an exciting gaming experience. With pre-order options and universal Apple ID unlock, it offers a convenient option for players who want to seamlessly switch between their devices. While some questions remain regarding in-app purchases and the availability of "Resident Evil Village," the anticipation for these legendary games remains undiminished.
