令人咋舌的预算:使命召唤游戏刷新行业纪录

  • 使命召唤系列游戏预算屡创新高,最高达7亿美元。
  • 《黑色行动 冷战》7亿美元的预算甚至超过了《星际公民》。
  • 3A游戏预算飙升,凸显了电子游戏行业成本不断上涨的趋势。

动视暴雪公布了三款使命召唤游戏的预算,其中一些数字令人印象深刻,预算范围从4.5亿美元到7亿美元不等。这些巨额的使命召唤开发预算创下了该系列游戏史上的最高纪录,《黑色行动 冷战》位居榜首。

制作电子游戏并非易事。开发过程通常需要数年时间,并耗费公司大量的人力和财力。虽然某些独立游戏以相对较低的预算(例如通过Kickstarter平台筹集资金)而闻名,但3A游戏领域的情况却大相径庭。年度大作的价格逐年上涨,超过了当时被认为“昂贵”的经典游戏。有史以来最昂贵的游戏包括《荒野大镖客2》、《赛博朋克2077》和《最后生还者2》。然而,这些游戏的预算都远不及最近公布的使命召唤游戏预算。

据Game File报道,动视暴雪使命召唤系列创意主管帕特里克·凯利在12月23日提交给加州法院的文件中,披露了《黑色行动3》、《现代战争》(2019)和《黑色行动 冷战》的预算,其中后者开发成本超过7亿美元。这款游戏耗费动视暴雪多年时间才完成,销量超过3000万份。紧随其后的是《现代战争》,Infinity Ward投入了超过6.4亿美元用于开发,销量达4100万份。最后,《黑色行动3》的预算虽然是三款游戏中最低的,为4.5亿美元,但仍是《最后生还者2》2.2亿美元开发成本的两倍多。

《黑色行动 冷战》开发成本超过7亿美元

《黑色行动 冷战》的预算是有史以来电子游戏中最高的,甚至超过了《星际公民》6.44亿美元的巨额开发成本。令人惊讶的是,《黑色行动 冷战》是由单一公司融资的,而《星际公民》则通过众筹的方式在11年内获得了资金。

有趣的是,自2020年《黑色行动 冷战》发布以来,《黑色行动6》等游戏的成本可能已经大幅增加。根据趋势,预算每年都在增长。例如,1997年发布的《最终幻想7》在当时是一场图形和技术的革命,其成本为4000万美元,当时被认为是巨额预算。如今,与当前3A游戏的成本相比,这个数字显得微不足道。动视暴雪最近公布的预算,无疑证明了电子游戏行业成本不断上涨的趋势。
