Insomniac's Spider-Man game brought in $3.8 billion in revenue

Former PlayStation Global Marketing Group Manager Kevin K. has estimated that the first Spider-Man game, developed by Sony and Insomniac Games, grossed over $3.8 billion.

Things to Know

This claim raises some questions, as the game has officially sold over 20 million copies. This estimate puts the revenue per copy sold at around $190, which seems like a significantly inflated figure, especially considering the game's relatively modest number of microtransactions. The main revenue was likely generated from sales of the game itself, additional content, and special editions.

However, it is possible that Kevin K.'s estimate includes revenue not only from the original Spider-Man game, but also from the entire franchise developed by Insomniac Games. After Kevin K. was fired from Sony, the spin-off Spider-Man: Miles Morales and an updated version of the game for the PlayStation 5 were released, which significantly increased the franchise's total revenue. These factors could have significantly affected the total revenue reported by Kevin K.
