Some of the earliest series in gaming are still doing.
Here’s a look at some of them that have been running the longest.
But which game company has the most series on its resume?
The studio broke into the fighting game scene one decade later with legendary series like Soulcalibur and Tekken.
Overall,Bandai Namco has 60 IPs under its belt.
The company first gained notoriety with hits like Ape Escape and Grand Turismo.
From Uncharted to God of War, these are the best PlayStation series of all time.
The list goes on and on, amounting to a total of 73 series.
Don’t forget about the cult classics like Jak and Daxter and PaRappa the Rapper!
The company has also branched out to many other genres.
Some key examples are the critically acclaimed Life is Strange games and the Japanese-exclusive party series Itadaki Street.
If you add them all up, it comes out to 75 series in total.
4Microsoft
Just How Many Studios Does This Company Own?
However, Microsoft’s IP count skyrockets if you include all the studios it’s acquired throughout the decades.
Talk about one heck of a portfolio.
3EA
Football And Aliens And Sims, Oh My!
EA is arguably one of the most infamous video game developers, for better or for worse.
These EA games are the company’s greatest of all time.
However, you may best recognize EA as a major influence in sports video games.
The company owns the rights to the FIFA and Madden NFL series, along with many other sports-related IPs.
Altogether, the studio has a whopping 93 series in its catalog.
Sadly, dozens of its brands faded into obscurity when the company became a third-party developer.
Still, retro game fans may remember classics like Crazy Taxi, Columns, and NiGHTS into Dreams.
If we group all spin-offs as one massive brand, the total drops to 306.
However, would you believe that over half of Nintendo’s IPs are one-off series?
It turns out that being one of the oldest video game developers gives you quite the resume.
Nintendo has a strong legacy.
