Sony Boys told me shyt was all good in the hood.


According to leaked insomniac documents Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart sold 2.2 Million Units, incurred an $8 Mill loss Game had a total budget of $81 million, and failed to break even.

Sony must sell at least 6 million copies of marvel titles. If they do not hit that go, Disney can walk away and get paid a termination fee from Sony. This is why Sony bundles Spider-Man games in their console.

Damn no wonder they pivoting towards gaas, a 300mm risk for only 70mm in profit?? Crazy how long the revenue is, considering something like diablo sold 666mm in revenue in a short week, you'd think spiderman was the bigger game

It really isn't as straightforward as that - the game is helping push huge amounts of PS5s out the shops.

Yea I get that, but consoles don't really make money, so their biggest revenue drivers in these cases would be 3P such as cod and fortnite. Doesn't sound sustainable and make sense why they were anti abk

:yeshrug:Them marvel games gonna be good, and why not bundle them with a console lol. As for Ratchet I’m not surprised I love that franchise. But people today especially Sony’s modern audience. Isn’t flocking to that franchise like they once were doing the ps2 era. Hell even Naughty Dog knows this remember when they said. That they’ve moved pass with making Jak and Daxter games.
