Ubisoft, SEGA, and Nintendo also received plenty of nominations, with Bandai Namco, Activision, Xbox Game Studios, and Valve Corporation following close by. Switching to game developers, Naughty Dog, Sucker Punch Productions, Insomniac Games, Ubisoft, and Valve Corporation distinguished themselves above all.
