$220 million is not unheard of, particularly for a game that's intended to sell consoles. GTA 5 had a similarly sized budget. https://www.dualshockers.com/bigg

As for waiting years between installments, we have plenty of great games to play through in the meantime. "We will release it when it's ready" is a mentality that has sadly been forgotten over the past several years.
- that_guy_iain 3y ago> As for waiting years between installments, we have plenty of great games to play through in the meantime. "We will release it when it's ready" is a mentality that has sadly been forgotten over the past several years. It's very questionable if we do have plenty of great games. And there is a difference between rushing a release and spending 15 years between releases. Putting it as waiting years is presenting it in a false light, it's waiting decades. It's very possible the time between Skyrim and the next installment is 20-years. GTA5 was 10-years ago and has been on 3 different generations of consoles. It could very well be that GTA6 doesn't even get release on PS4 because it'll take so long.
