Resident Evil 2026 has grossed about $196.5 million worldwide. Sony Pictures and PlayStation Productions released the theatrical reboot in the United States on September 18, 2026. The US and Canada account for $103.5 million. International markets add about $93 million. The figures come from Wikipedia, Box Office Mojo and The Numbers.
What happened at the box office
Resident Evil 2026 opened to about $60 million domestically. That is a franchise cinema record. It beats Resident Evil: Retribution from 2012. The estimated budget is $75 million. The second weekend dropped about 61 percent, to $23.3 million. The film still sat near the top of the chart. On Saturday, September 26, it led the US daily box office with about $9.8 million.
Critics have been strong. Rotten Tomatoes lists 96 percent positive reviews from 266 notices, with a 7.7/10 average. Coverage also calls Resident Evil 2026 the highest-rated video-game movie on the major aggregators in this snapshot. The world premiere was in Los Angeles on September 15. Runtime is 94 minutes.
Why it matters for players
Welcome to Raccoon City stalled around $42 million worldwide in 2021. Resident Evil 2026 puts the brand in front of a general audience again. It does not depend only on Capcom players. A mid-budget adaptation can still compete in late September, a weaker window than the US summer.
The $196 million pace after a little more than a week and a half shows real demand. Weekend and cumulative totals still move every day. Treat the numbers as a snapshot, not a final tally.
