How much money does activision gets from the game if i buy it?
percentage wise because i hate them very much and i am afraid of supporting them. I also am afraid that if this game will be very successful they will make their own franchise clone of it and make billions.
They can ruin this game genre, imagine them making this kinda game but not a knight from DS or a shinobi from sekiro but about a viking or the next year about a roman or a spartan warrior and ruining this genre like they ruined the fps genre with their COD games.
If there is a person who know how much revenue goes to their pockets of each sale, please tell me it will help me to decide whether to buy it or not

Sekiro is From's IP and they can't milk it unless Froms wants it.
If Activision tries to do their own franchise, don't buy them and you'll be fine.
Just get Sekiro and move on and forget about Acti's existence.

Well lucky you. You're gonna play it on pc where there will be mods/guides to remove activision loading logo and such.
Forget it please. Sekiro is gonna be awesome.
What MasterDrake said.

You have an alternative:
Move to Japan or Asia, since Activision isn't publishing it there

After all, if you don't buy a game because you don't like the Publisher its always going to hurt the Developer, not the Publisher.

My last real COD was (i belief) MW3. I bought Ghosts and advanced Warfare when they were on sale to see if maby i got more interest in it now, but no. Its just way too fast and stuffed with special effects nowadays.

Yep, but you are not supporting a further development by them. You're supporting Fromsoft. If they were producers they'd care more.

When any publisher makes a deal to publish a game they are making a gamble, the more risky the gamble the more incentives they want from the developer, like making them do loot boxes, change character from female to male, add a multiplayer mode.

I think Sekiro is a pretty safe bet for any publisher, so I doubt Activision will be getting much from it.

What kind of logic is that...

If they wouldn't make big profits with it they wouldn't publish. Nobody would. That's not even worthy of a discussion.

As for the original question. Nobody knows but it's a safe bet they get enough to have agreed to the deal. Considering they have to keep shareholders and the likes happy I doubt it's a very small margin. They don't get the biggest cut but, even though I'm repeating myself here, they wouldn't have agreed to it if the money was too little.

What are you on? Publishing is literally nothing but profit. The only costs they are going to carry is physical production.

What kind of logic is that? You think they can peek into a crystal ball and determine the guaranteed profits? Think of every game that has ever bombed, do you think the publishers still made a profit?

Most of the time studios don't have the money to fully develop a game so the publisher pays the rest in return for a greater cut among other things (artistic control, IP ownership, loot boxes, mulitplayer, merchandising). From is in a very good position, their past games have sold very well, their name is well known among a dedicated fanbase so there is less risk.

Being a Japanese dev they really only need to leverage a western publisher's marketing know-how.

Half-wrong statement. If the publisher funds the project and the project flops, of course they'll lose money.
