Leikir Studio

Leikir Studio was a French game development studio founded in 2012 and based in Ivry-sur-Seine, near Paris. Its work combined original game production with web development, spanning tactical role-playing games, action and strategy roguelikes, ecosystem simulation and interactive digital projects. The studio developed for PC and consoles, with an emphasis on system-driven gameplay and visual approaches ranging from stylized 3D to handcrafted 2D and pixel art.

Games and collaborations

The studio's early original releases included Isbarah: The First Journey in 2015 and the multiplayer combat arena game Wondershot in 2016. It later co-developed Rogue Lords, released in 2021, alongside Cyanide Studio for publisher Nacon. These projects preceded its work on both an established game franchise and a new ecosystem-focused setting.

Leikir developed Metal Slug Tactics, a grid-based tactical RPG adaptation of SNK's franchise, published by Dotemu and released for PC and consoles on November 5, 2024. Its other major later production, Synergy, explored ecosystem survival and city building. Published by Goblinz Publishing, the game entered Early Access in May 2024 before its full release on April 16, 2025.

Capabilities and company history

Alongside full-cycle development, Leikir's capabilities included game design, tactical mechanics engineering, co-development and multiplatform porting. Its digital agency work extended to web application design and custom software engineering, reflecting a business that maintained both game production and web development activities.

Focus Home Interactive acquired Leikir on February 14, 2022, making it the group's fifth internal development studio. The parent subsequently became PulluP Entertainment. Following an organizational audit and portfolio review, PulluP announced the discontinuation and liquidation of Leikir on January 15, 2026. The studio ceased operations after approximately fourteen years, and its former official website domain later expired.
