Griffin Gaming Partners leads $7M investment in Fuse Games

Griffin Gaming Partners announced today that it has led the $7 million investment round into Turkish indie studio Fuse Games. The studio is working on a debut project and building out its team, with the investment going towards the development of its original IP and proprietary tech. Lakestar, NFX Capital and Actera also participated in the round.

Ibrahim Hafeez, investor at Griffin, said in a statement, “We look for studios that don’t just have talent — they have a clear, enduring vision. Fuse brings that rare combination of creative excellence, operational discipline, and an intuitive understanding of what players want. We’re excited to back a team that’s not just chasing trends, but setting the foundation for the future of games.”

Fuse Games is reportedly working on its first game, which it’s creating under the mission to “deliver player-first experiences that stand the test of time.” It’s also growing its team — which at present has 12 people on it — and hiring for multiple positions.

Akin Şahan, CEO and co-founder of Fuse, said in a statement, “Fuse was founded on the idea that truly great games marry accessibility with depth — games that welcome everyone but reward mastery. With Griffin’s support, we’re accelerating our roadmap to deliver new IP that blends technical innovation with pure player joy. This partnership gives us the opportunity to scale the studio without compromising the creative spirit that defines us.”
