Rockstar is the number one developer in video games and this game will likely sell 100+ million units. I bet the MX games are lucky to sell one million units. The budgets for making a MX game will be noting but a small fraction compared to that of a AAA game.
I'm not sure if it'll sell 100+ million copies. GTA V did but it has a bigger audience. That said here are stats that I posted a while back in the RDR2 thread in non-moto.
-In the opening weekend the game was released they achieved $725 million in sales.
-That put RDR2 second place in terms of sales in an opening weekend. Sitting in the number 1 spot is GTA V which did $1 billion in sales.
-RDR2 is the fastest selling video game since GTA V. Both games are developed by Rockstar.
-RDR2 already sold more copies than the first game did in the first 8 years.
-RDR2 also broke other records for digital sales on the Playstation Network: most pre-orders, biggest day-one full game sales, and most sales in the first three days.
