LogInPlayStation's poorly-redacted document revealed that each game cost more than $200 million to develop.
The poorly-redacted document submitted by Sony Interactive Entertainment disclosed that The Last of Us sequel took 70 months and cost $220 million with 200 full-time developers, while Horizon Forbidden West's development process lasted a total of 5 years and cost PlayStation $212 million to create with a peak headcount of over 300 employees.
It is also worth noting that the accidentally-revealed costs only cover the development itself, without factoring in the marketing and promotion costs.
