Comment on Unknown Worlds Earns $250M Performance Bonus After Stellar Subnautica 2 Launch
False@lemmy.world 11 hours agoThey probably need to sell over 14 million copies at full price to break even with that bonus. The math is very bad for them. That’s not impossible, but it would make it one of the best selling games of all time

Thanks for checking the math, that is indeed an ambitious goal to reach.
Subnautica 1 and Below Zero together sold over 18 million copies, so reaching over 14 million with only one installment is doable with the bonus of being well known now, but still very ambitious.
And just to admit: yeah I also think the CEO did an overly stupid thing with that amount of money as bonus. But he also uses ChatGPT as legal advisor, so him being stupid is something we already knew.
