Focus Entertainment's latest financial results reveal that the French publisher/developer has at least two unannounced titles in development, one of which based on an iconic movie franchise.

Focus Entertainment will be releasing later this year A Plague Tale: Requiem, the sequel to Asobo’s best seller, as well as Evil West.

An ambitious game developed by its subsidiary Deck13 and a new game developed by Tindalos Interactive based on an iconic movie franchise will be released in the end of the fiscal year 2022/23 (ending March 31, 2023).

Over the year, Dotemu will also launch 3 games based on iconic licenses: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle: Shredder’s Revenge, Pharaoh: A New Era and Metal Slug Tactics.

John Bert, Managing Director, comments: “Alongside with those key releases developed with worldwide established studios, we continue to secure and enrich our creative approach by developing new partnerships with promising studios: Different Tales, Dream Powered Games, Rundisc, and Two Horizons. Supporting and accompanying the talent of young creators and promising studios have always been rooted in the history and DNA of the Focus Group, one of the many skills is to put our expertise at the service of high-potential studios to build lasting partnerships with them to create the successes of today and tomorrow."

After acquiring Deck13 in 2020, the group completed the acquisition of 4 additional studios: Streum On Studio, Dotemu, Douze-Dixièmes and lastly, Leikir Studio on February 14, 2022.

Leikir Studio thus became the 5th development studio to integrate with Focus Entertainment. The studio developed several PC and console titles acclaimed by the press and players and is currently developing Metal Slug Tactics, based on the legendary license from Japanese publisher SNK.
