Who's the king of licenses?

[Olgar Shiverstone]

"King of Licenses" sounds like a game title. Wheel, deal, and try to license properties to win the game!

I feel so ignorant around licenses. Does anyone have an idea of what a license might cost, in round numbers? And I know it varies tremendously by license, but I'm definitely curious.

Varies widely, but I'm aware the star wars license is in the 6-7 figure range upfront cost.

Some are way less - in the low 4 figures for some. Those were licenses of game A to game B, where Game A was not a big seller, but had a fanbase.

Further, most have had a profit share component in addition.
