Yesterday (September 1, 2026), Piko Interactive announced that it had acquired 7 Raven Studios, an independent video game developer and publisher with 20 years of experience developing and releasing games across console, PC, mobile, and retro platforms. Indeed, the formats for which 7 Raven Studios has previously released games include the Game Boy Advance, and the Nintendo DS.
Piko Interactive said that: “Through 7 Raven Studios, Piko plans to establish a more consistent internal development pipeline focused on two areas: creating new original IP and developing entirely new games based on Piko’s extensive catalog of classic video game properties,” and that, “over the years, Piko Interactive has assembled a portfolio of hundreds of video game titles and intellectual properties spanning the 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s. The addition of 7 Raven Studios gives Piko an established development operation capable of bringing many of those properties back through new games rather than limiting them to re-releases and preservation projects.”
“Piko has spent years building one of the most diverse catalogs of classic video game IP,”, and the next step is creating new games with it,” said Eli Galindo, President of Piko Interactive. “7 Raven Studios gives us an experienced development team and established publishing infrastructure that we can use to accelerate that strategy, while also giving the studio the opportunity to create completely new properties of its own.”
The acquisition follows the launch of Piko Interactive’s retro gaming streaming service, Bleemcast, on which we reported last week.
