With the improvement of game screen expressiveness and the continuous increase of content, the development cost of modern large-scale 3A games has also risen. In particular, Halo: Infinite and Cyberpunk 2077, which have a long development cycle, are works that developers spend a lot of money to create.
According to industry insiders, Call of Duty, which will be listed at the end of 2022, will bring the development cost to a new height – more than 250 million US dollars.
The above news comes from Twitter user RalphsValve, who is well known to players for his frequent revelations about the Call of Duty series games. According to RalphsValve, a Call of Duty 19: Modern Warfare 2 game in late 2022 will cost between $250 million and $300 million.
Although Activision has not officially released this year’s Call of Duty game, the industry has long believed that Infinity Ward will be responsible for the main development of Call of Duty in 2022, and will be the sequel to 2019’s “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare”.
It has been previously reported that 11 studios will participate in the development and production of Call of Duty in 2022. The source said that this new game is a “once-in-a-lifetime” work. With a large number of developers and record funding, it is believed that this year’s Call of Duty will set off a new wave of shooting games.
