GTA 5 INVESTED $270 Million TO PRODUCE & MARKET
Do you think people only need millions of dollars to produce a box-office Hollywood movies??
You are certainly wrong because the new series of Grand Theft Auto have spent $270 million to make and market the video game. This is the most expensive game that has ever produced in this planet.
More than three million copies have been pre-ordered so far, making the launch of GTA 5 likely the biggest entertainment release of the year - larger than any movie or album.
It is revealed by The Scotsman that more than 300 designers, programmers and artists spent at least 5 years on producing the game, and had a budget bigger than most Hollywood blockbusters to work with.
The £170 million figure also includes the cost of marketing the game, but still towers over any other video game - titles like Naughty Dog's Uncharted 3 costs only $25 million to produce, according to Cinema Blend.
In fact the only movie to have ever cost more was Pirates of the Caribbean: World's End, which had a budget of $300 million compared to GTA 5's $270 million.
Despite putting a lot of investment, Rockstar is estimating GTA 5 could pull in at least £1 billion in revenue in its first year, with sales of 25 million copies.
GTA 5 will be released on 17th September 2013.
