    Since the KH series has sold over 20 millions copies worldwide, Square Enix top wigs have made the Japanese Forbes list in 4 different years (with Fukushima being worth the most at $900 million in 2007), and since Disney is also funding it, how big do you think the budget be for KH3?

    Maybe 20 million?

    20 million... is not very much. KH involves a huge team, you have to pay them all, hire people to play the orchestral music. Pay the voice actors, pay for the rights to use licensed music (like He's a Pirate or Beauty and the Beast) The upcoming game Destiny had a budget of 500 million dollars for advertising alone.
    20 million? That's how you make an up scale indie game, Kingdom Hearts is going to need a lot more than that, especially something as important as KH3
    What will that budget be? No clue, not even a slight one. That kind of information very rarely trickles down to the public.
    If I had to take a shot in the dark, I'd put it somewhere in the 600+ million range, assuming KH3 is going to be on the same scale as KH2, if not bigger

    Hmmmm.... Considering that this is a major release in the KH series since Kingdom Hearts II, and like what hatok said about KHIII being developed by a huge team, I would say that the budget will be between 500-750 million dollars.
