Nacon

Nacon at a Glance

Nacon is a French publisher based in Lesquin that has been active since 1981. While the company originally focused on gaming accessories, its current output consists almost entirely of video game publishing. The data shows they have released 92 titles on PlayPile, with 91 as a publisher and only one as a developer. Their catalog is heavily concentrated in the modern era, with just 10 games from the 2010s compared to 79 games in the 2020s. This shift suggests a major expansion of their publishing strategy over the last decade. The company covers a wide range of genres, but simulation and sports titles dominate their portfolio. They have released 54 simulator games and 41 sports games. Other notable areas include adventure with 30 titles, role-playing games at 24, and strategy with 23 releases. Racing games make up 20 of their projects, while hack and slash, indie, card and board games, and puzzle games appear in smaller numbers. Their platform reach is extensive across major consoles and PC. They have 81 games on Microsoft Windows, 71 on Xbox Series X|S, and 70 on PlayStation 5. Older or more niche platforms like the Nintendo 3DS, Mac, Linux, and Google Stadia have very few titles, with only 2 to 3 releases each. Quality varies across their library. The average IGDB rating for their 32 rated titles is 67.1 out of 100. The breakdown shows 3 great titles, 23 good ones, and 6 mixed ratings. There are no poor-rated games in the dataset. Recent releases show high potential with Ravenswatch scoring 89.5 in 2024 and Garden Life: A Cozy Simulator at 86. Earlier hits like Roguebook (79.8) and WRC 10 (79.2) also performed well. Future releases listed for 2026 include Edge of Memories, The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu, and Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss, indicating a continued presence in the horror and simulation spaces through at least mid-decade.
