Squadron 42 is the single player campaign of Star Citizen, that is supposed to launch as a separate game. It's basically a small portion of Star Citizen, but with a story and ending. I'm still not confident; waited too long for that.

Currently Star Citizen is at the #1 spot for the most money spent on a video game's development on this list. And that's including adjustment for inflation.

I can't believe Shadow of the Tomb Raider was that expensive, it's such a forgettable game.

It's even worse if you look further down on the other unofficial figures list at Marvel's Avengers. It nearly costed as much as Red Dead Redemption 2 (also unofficial numbers). My assumption is, that the license is in these costs included and why it balooned it.
