Some studios seem to be doing that.

The Arknights developer Hypergryph has created a bunch of new divisions to develop different games, including non-gacha single player ones. Their first non-gacha game Ex Astris was a bit underwhelming... but it costs like 9 bucks, so it's not like the expectations are that high at least for me.

Lesser known studio Project Moon also released a gacha game (Limbus Company) which they did I believe expressly say was to fund their future full release games. I would honestly really recommend their games, especially Library of Ruina if you enjoy difficult games with pretty cool story/setting.
