madmaltese★ 2,553 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Cost to make Control was reportedly 20-30m euro Really awesome to get these numbers cause it really sheds light on the safety it provides the developers. This deal probably turns Control from a failure into a success. Near 50% of production cost to sell exclusively on EGS when you're mulitplat on consoles also is a no brainer.

Dude... Fortnite is making them BILLIONS... Fortnite alone in 2018 made almost 2.5 Billion. That's not to mention they're very successful in their other ventures as well. One guy made a video going over just how much money Epic has and attempts to answer the question of "how long can Epic keep this up for?"... and it was something like "They could do this shit all day..." Epic has Big Dick™ money and Tim ain't afraid to throw it around to get what he wants. I guarantee we see some other Sony games come to Epic in the future... and I wouldn't be surprised to see Epic build a few studios in the future as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Delita 698 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Fortnite + Unreal engine 4 money. Everything uses unreal engine. Even fucking Square games like kingdom hearts 3 and dragon quest xi. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kaz 2,439 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 i like the unreal engine but everything else is shitty. the fact they made a lot of money with that trash game scamming the fuck out of kiddies is despicable. I hope they all die and their shitty game with it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
