Though it's gonna be very difficult to make a profit out of it.

They raked in €100M in revenue from Heay Rain. Beyond: Two Souls will be profitable.

Yep as you said, revenue. Sony gets 57% of the revenue. Subtract development and marketing costs and Heavy Rain made maybe €15-20m profit.
Beyond surely need to sell ~2m to become profitable.

(btw last number we know was "over $100m")

$100m for what? Only budget number we have seen is $27 million.

The total amount of revenue it caused.

There was also a thread about it here. At that time they probably shipped 2.8m units or so.
In case you already knew that I was highlighting that the source used Dollars instead of Euros.

EDIT: Just saw that there is indeed a source that uses Euro:

It's the same exact quote but with Euro instead of Dollar. Someone fucked up lol.
