Both Sega and Capcom are off to a tremendous start in 2025. Last month, Sega released its wacky nautical adventure Like A Dragon: Pirate Yakuza In Hawaii to universally favorable reviews. And last week, Capcom released Monster Hunter Wilds, the fastest selling game in company history. But according to aggregate review site Metacritic, the hot start these two companies are having this year is just a continuation of what both pulled off in 2024.
Metacritic released a list of 2024’s best publishers across the games industry, weighing the critical reception of the games it released throughout the year. The list only counts publishers that released five or more distinct titles throughout the year, awarding points based on the average Metacritic scores of its games.
