Last year, the authors of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle earned over $44 million
Although MachineGames is a part of Microsoft, it is required to independently report to the Swedish regulator in accordance with the country's legislation. Recently, the studio released its report for the year 2024.
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
According to the document, the past year was significantly more profitable for the developers compared to 2023. For instance, the studio's net sales amounted to 428.48 million Swedish kronor ($44.36 million), an increase of 22.3% over the year. Consequently, its annual turnover reached 433.72 million Swedish kronor ($44.9 million).
MachineGames' profit after taxes also rose — by 25.5% to 26 million Swedish kronor ($2.7 million).
The release of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle likely played a role in the studio's revenue growth, but it's worth remembering that the adventure story of Indiana Jones was released towards the end of the year, on December 9, 2024.
It's important to note that we do not know all the nuances of Microsoft's studios' accounting. It is possible that part of MachineGames' cash flow passes through other departments of the corporation, so the figures in the report may not fully reflect reality.
