Literally only made up by Capcom Europe's marketing team because they didn't want to market RE4 as a horror game at all, but Capcom Japan and USA proudly had SURVIVAL HORROR advertised on the box and both of them generally marketed it as a scary horror and action game unlike the Euros who didn't get the memo.

And regardless of what one may think about RE4's horror aspect Mikami famously took over directing duties from Kamiya because he couldn't stick to his mandate that the series had to always be horror and thus his endeavor spun off into DMC instead.
