The French publisher Pullup Entertainment has announced that it is closing Leikir Studio. The announcement states: "Pullup Entertainment regularly adapts its organization and portfolio to focus on projects with the highest potential. In this context, the Group has decided to discontinue Leikir studio activity."
Focus Home Interactive (nor Pullup) acquired the studio in February 2022. At the time, the studio, which was founded and led by Aurélien Loos, employed around 20 people. Based in Ivry-sur-Seine, France, Leikir Studio was founded in 2012. Its notable productions include Isbarah, Wondershot, I Am Legion, Rogue Lords, Metal Slug Tactics (published by Dotemu) and Synergy (published by Goblinz Publishing), the latter of which left Early Access in April 2025.
This means that Pullup Entertainment now incorporates two publishers, Focus Entertainment Publishing and Dotemu, and five development studios: Dovetail Games (Train Sim World), Deck13 (The Surge), Blackmill Games (WW1 Game Series), Douze Dixièmes (Shady Part of Me and Memories in Orbit) and Carpool Studio (new Live Service IP). Last but not least is one audiovisual structure: Scripteam, which is dedicated to adapting Pullup's licences into series and films.
