Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Microsoft Studio Tier List (First Party)

The best 5 in my opinion (in no particular order):

The Coalition
Playground Games
Infinity Ward
id Software
343 Industries



Around the Network

Right now I think it’s difficult to judge some of them because they only recently joined XGS and don’t have a huge body of post XGS work. The standout studios right now for me are, in no particular order:

The coalition
Playground
Bethesda Rockville (Todd Howard’s studio)
iD
Obsidian
Arkane Lyon

Studios that get underrated:
Rare
Turn 10
Undead Labs
