Double-A And Indie Studios Make Up Half Of This Year's Top-Performing Steam Games

2025 feels like a bit of a tipping point for gaming. As bigger studios continue to cancel projects and lay off talented developers, or see their trend-chasing games fail, smaller games have come to the limelight. Indie titles like Schedule 1, R.E.P.O., and Peak have all garnered massive audiences, while games from smaller studios, such as Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, have achieved critical acclaim, breaking multiple records in the process.
