Kickstarter's Gaming Giants: Top 3 Most Funded Video Games

Kickstarter has proven to be a powerful platform for game developers, enabling numerous projects to secure funding directly from their audience, with some reaching unprecedented levels of support.

The top 3

1. All-Time Highest Funded Video Game: Star Citizen holds the record as the most crowdfunded video game, having raised over $551 million as of February 2023, largely due to continuous funding for its ambitious space simulation development.
2. Double Fine's Groundbreaking Campaign: Double Fine's own 'Double Fine Adventure,' which became Broken Age, was a landmark Kickstarter success, raising over $3.45 million and demonstrating the viability of crowdfunding for established studios.
3. Record-Setting RPG Crowdfunding: Torment: Tides of Numenera, a spiritual successor to Planescape: Torment, set a record at the time for the highest-funded video game on Kickstarter, raising over $4 million for its development.
