    $50 Million or more would be my guess on the asking price.

    Probably quite a hefty amount of money seeing as the Devs purchased the rights to the game from Starbreeze for $4m(?)

    Nope, they've got it for $15 million, it's just that they separated this price into smaller portions and payed them before Curtain Call release, since it's traler doesn't have Starbreeze logo.
    My guess would be $20~30m - because Starbreeze kind of cheapened it, and it should be grown in price at the moment they theoretically may want to sell it.

    UPD: They managed to pay in a month, since they stopped putting Starbreeze logo on their streams since April 19th.

    Wait.. So you're telling me the only hit game this company has they didn't even develop themselves? Just bought it from someone else? Lmao it all makes since now... The tournaments, the updates and patches, Deathgarden's "success" ... It all makes so much sense now.

    Starbreeze is their publisher, not the developers. Behavior Interactive developed this game themselves.

    LOL Did you know that publishers usually finance game by getting all the rights on it? Bhvr did develop this game, Starbreeze just published it. And many other developers don't actually have any right to their games and publishers have all the right to give the development to another company. Example: Life is Strange was developed by dontnod, but Square Enix own all the rights, so they gave Before The Storm to Deck Nine, who have nothing to do with original devs.
    Thakfully, Behaviour got their rights "back" and same thing won't happen to DbD.

    Actually, you can manage to find some cheap in-game stuff, from some random game.

    Nah the lowest price things sell for are 3 cents because the seller can still get 1 cent back xD

    Hah, I've sold an item for less than 0.1 RUB, which is ~0,7 cents, huh. It's actualy interesting, how USD prices are higher in lots of cases since minimum is 3 cents.
