I dont think Sony cares if theyll make any money in this game anymore, when they decided to not pull the plug and convert it into a PS4 game they knew it was gona be impossible to make money in this project, what they want is a great game to get both Japanese and Western gamers excited, restore ppls trust in Team ICO and help push more PS4 consoles. This is more or less the same thing Square Enix did with FF XIV (altough on Squares case they probably did end up making money) they invested throngs of money into remaking FF XIV to recuperate fan support/trust in the company.
