Wasn't gta5 about the same budget? Probably less?
GTA was 2 billion
That's earnings, not development.
Development estimates say 1-1.5 billion, with marketing estimates are over 2 billion
Think slightly less, though they did go beyond for that as I think they went and got ex gangsters to voice and script some gang members in that game.
