The Japanese gaming giant reclaimed the top spot with critically acclaimed titles and a record-breaking third win.

Sega topped Metacritic's 2024 Game Publisher Rankings, narrowly surpassing Capcom with a score of 325.5 points and an average Metascore of 82.9.
This marks Sega's third time as the highest-rated publisher, following wins in 2021 and 2016, making it the first company to achieve this milestone.
Key releases contributing to Sega's success include Metaphor: ReFantazio (94), Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth (89), and Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance (87).
Sega's subsidiary Atlus played a significant role with standout titles like Persona 3 Reload and Unicorn Overlord, both earning strong critical acclaim.
The rankings are based on factors such as average Metascore, percentage of positively reviewed titles, and the number of 'great' games (scoring 90 or higher).
