CI Games CFO David Broderick shared the figures during a conference call on October 24, according to Bankier.pl. Total costs for Lords of the Fallen amounted to PLN 281 million ($66.6 million), of which:
  • Development costs (excluding engine license fees) — PLN 178 million ($42.2 million);
  • Marketing costs — PLN 81.5 million ($19.3 million);
  • Production of physical copies — PLN 21.5 million ($5.1 million).
This is now the most expensive game in CI Games’ portfolio. Broderick added that marketing costs are not only related to Lords of the Fallen’s launch campaign, but also to the future development of the entire franchise and its brand recognition.

On October 23, CI Games also announced that Lords of the Fallen had surpassed 1 million copies sold in its first 10 days. This includes both physical and digital units. According to Broderick, consoles accounted for 54% of total sales.

For comparison, the original Lords of the Fallen hit 900k units sold in seven months since its release in October 2014.
