In the early 2000s, the publisher enjoyed success with (among others) highly regarded PC games such as Cossacks and the Sudden Strike series. In 2021, the publisher became Focus Entertainment, but for a few months now, it has been under a completely new entity, namely PulluP Entertainment.

To boost its business, PulluP Entertainment was able to count on a choice ally this year, namely a certain Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2.

Excellent news for the French publisher, even though the video game industry has been grimacing for many months now.

In addition to various waves of layoffs at many giants since the beginning of the year, the French Don't Nod has also announced a wave of massive restructuring, while the French giant Ubisoft continues to get bogged down with Assassin's Creed Shadows…
