It didn't cost 400 million. There's no way a game like this can cost more than something like The Last of Us 2.
Yeah it seems like the source is a podcast saying a number like after talking with a staff member of concord. I would have thought that people below executive/finance suite wouldn't have that information. Not sure if they talked to someone in there but $400 million is just a bit steep.
Not impossible with tech salaries being what they are though, maybe it includes the buyout of the entire studio by Sony in that number though.
Colin said in the clip that it doesn’t include the cost of the buyout.
