Studios with the most Game of the Year awards
Every GOTY award won by a game, credited to its developing studio. Sort by any column.
Regional publishers appear here too.
Our source credits localisation and regional publishers the same way it credits the original one, so a company that only published a game in one territory can appear high in this list. Read a row as "was credited on games that won this many awards", not as "made this many hit games".
How this is counted.
Every credited developer gets the award, because the credit order in our source carries no meaning — a game listing two studios counts for both. That means this column intentionally does not add up to the 6,547 awards in the database.
