HMRC publishes statistics on the cost of video games tax relief here: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/creative-industries-statistics-august-2023

A breakdown of claims by production budgets is not available. However, within the National Statistics (Video Games – Table 4.2) there is a breakdown by the size of the claim.
