After dominating 2024 with Sonic, Persona, Yakuza, and Metaphor, Sega is the first company to become the year's best-rated publisher 3 times

Metaphor: ReFantazio's protagonist smiles at his fairy companion, Gallica in an anime-style cutscene.

Sega is officially the best-rated publisher of 2024, according to Metacritic - and the first publisher to ever snatch the crown in three different years, mind you - thanks to a blockbuster line-up featuring some of the best Sonic, Yakuza, and Atlus games of all time.

Last calendar year, Sega was pretty much firing on all cylinders. Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth (Metascore of 89) cranked the zany heartbreak all the way up, and Sonic X Shadow Generations (80) reminded us all of how damn cool the blue blur could be. Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble (77) was another decent outing in the nail-biting try-not-to-fall-to-your-death series, and Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba - Sweep the Board was the publisher's lowest-rated title with a still-respectable average score of 71.
