Have you seen the prices of suit/gun skins? They won't need to sell too many to cover up the costs...Are you sure it is still profitable?
Kickstarter cash (only around £300,000) will be written off this year - Odyssey was in production for around 3 years with up to 130 developers (from Frontier's own financial statements) so has cost a few millions to develop... All of which has to be recovered to satisfy investors / shareholders, preferably showing a health profit. Unless the console version sales are huge, I doubt the development cost will be paid.
