For gamers who play on Steam, Fanatical’s bundles are one of the best values on the internet. As you add games to its bundles, the price you pay for each game goes down. The latest bundle is perfectly timed, given that we’re inching closer to Halloween. It includes all the major games in the Resident Evil franchise, including the modern RE2 and RE3 remakes but excluding the more recent Resident Evil 4 remake from 2023. If you buy two games, the cost is $15.99, but going up to three brings the total to $21.99, or less than $7.50 per game.

$22

These titles are redeemable on Steam.

The highlight of this bundle (at least, in terms of dollar value) is Resident Evil Village, Capcom’s most recent installment in the series, which costs $39.99 if you purchase it on Steam. If I were you, I’d consider adding the Resident Evil 2 remake to the bundle as well, if you haven’t played it — for what it’s worth, it’s my favorite among Capcom’s remakes. Resident Evil 7 Biohazard is definitely worth playing, too. It’s Capcom’s first foray (and a horrifically successful one) in turning RE into a first-person experience.

The bundle is still worth checking out if you’ve played all of the most recent RE titles. Fanatical makes it easy to stock up on the older games by bundling some of them together. For instance, Resident Evil Revelations 1 and 2 are considered one item in this bundle, as are Resident Evil 4 (2005) and Resident Evil 5. You could also add the Resident Evil and Resident Evil 0 remakes from the Gamecube era to the bundle as one item.

Any way you choose to slice it, you’re getting a great deal on some of gaming’s best horror games. This bundle will be available through Nov. 4.

Here’s the full list of eligible titles:

  • Resident Evil Village
  • Resident Evil 3 (2020 remake)
  • Resident Evil 2 (2019 remake)
  • Resident Evil 7 Biohazard
  • Resident Evil 6 Complete
  • Resident Evil & Resident Evil 0 Double Pack
  • Resident Evil Revelations 1 & 2 Deluxe Double Pack
  • Resident Evil 4 (2005) & Resident Evil 5 Gold Edition Double Pack
