I know I'm missing a lot of older independent studios but it was mostly focused on the newer ones because I was sick of hearing constant complaining about consolidation or people freaking out whenever a few people leave a studio but now I'm just interested in keeping track of it, Lol. The gaming industry is perhaps one of the easiest industries to go indie in and right now it's easier than ever to secure funding. Could add a publisher bracket too, Idk. Not Independent but Not Owned by One of the Major Gaming Publishers

Nordisk also own SuperMassive Games (Until Dawn/The Quarry) and has a 40% stake in MercurySteam (Castlevania LoS/Metroid Dread who are making a AAA game.
Wizards of the Coast just canned a ton of projects due to money problems so i would be surprised to see some of those AAA teams get shut down.
