Player comments in the comment area: Perhaps the only person who can beat Rockstar (Red Dead Redemption 2) is Rockstar itself (GTA6)
But some players pointed out that this comparison is actually unfair. "Red Dead Redemption 2" had a longer development time (6 years), more developers (2,000 people) and a higher budget ($300 million), while Sucker Punch's "The Soul of Mount Yotei" was only developed for 4 years, with only 250 developers, and a lower budget of only $70 million.
