How this ranking is built

Position comes from one number: the count of shipped game credits recorded for each studio in this directory. More recorded credits, higher position. Nothing else is an input — not how long a studio has been listed, not how complete its profile is, and not whether it pays us.

Paid placement does not affect this ranking. Featured placement is sold on this site, it carries a Featured badge wherever it appears, and it cannot move a studio a single position here. Elsewhere it can: the best-of lists and the browse pages sort paid listings above unpaid ones, and they say so. These ranking pages are the exception, which is the only reason they are worth citing.

The list is mechanical, not editorial. It is produced by sorting a column. Nobody here has interviewed these studios, audited their work or vouched for them, and the great majority of listings have never been claimed by the studio that owns them. A high position is a statement about recorded credits and nothing else, and it is not a recommendation.

Only the top 10 of the 60 studios in this list get a position, under a rule that publishes the top 10 or the top quarter, whichever is smaller. Coming tenth out of twelve is not a placement worth publishing, so no position below the cut is shown anywhere on this site. Studios below it are listed alphabetically with no number attached, and so are studios with no shipped credits recorded here. Unranked means we found no credits, not that a studio has none.

Credit data comes from public game-credit databases and is incomplete by nature. Most outsourcing work ships uncredited, so a studio can be excellent and still rank low or not appear at all — which is the honest limit of this ranking and the reason to open the profiles and the studios' own sites rather than stopping at the order on this page. If the credits recorded for your studio are wrong, claim the listing and tell us. These pages are regenerated hourly from the live directory.
