List of largest video game companies by revenue

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a listing of largest video game publishers and developers ranked by reported revenue. Sony Interactive Entertainment is the world's largest video game company, followed by Tencent and Microsoft Gaming.[1]

Of the 800 largest video game companies, 18 are based in the United States, 12 in China, 12 in Japan, and 10 in South Korea.

Certain major companies such as Valve Corporation are not included in this list. This is primarily because Valve is a privately held company and does not publicly disclose detailed financial statements or revenue reports.
