Our Games

Toria

Toria is a medieval sandbox MMORPG built around freedom, exploration, crafting, and player-driven stories.

In a harsh and believable world where the supernatural remains rare, every choice matters, from the skills you develop and the items you create to the alliances you forge and the reputation you build.

In development

Hunter Oden

Hunter Oden is a tactical space adventure blending crew management, exploration, and turn-based combat.

Inspired by space westerns, you command a crew of bounty hunters, travel from system to system, hunt dangerous targets, and face the consequences of every decision.

Prototype

Herios

Herios is a strategic card game built around multiple universes, each bringing its own characters, creatures, mechanics and visual identity.

The first universe introduced is Toria. Build your collection, create your deck and outsmart your opponent through tactical placement, combinations and clever use of each universe’s unique cards.

Closed beta

Onima

Onima is a mobile adventure game built around a unique bond between player and spirit animal. Each Onima has its own appearance, personality and abilities, making every companion truly individual.

Co-productions

Ratel Studio also works on co-productions with other studios and creative partners, combining expertise, resources and production capabilities to bring ambitious projects to life.

From game design and development to artistic direction, production and technical support, we adapt to each project and build collaborations around a shared vision, clear responsibilities and long-term creative value.

Trobador

Co-produced with Crazy Hammer Games

Trobador is a solo historical sandbox RPG set in 12th-century Limousin.

You arrive penniless at the château de Malemort, near Brive-la-Gaillarde, as the region rises against English rule. Master a trade, survive the seasons and earn your place at a great lord's side.

In development

Get Funky

Co-produced with Fensch Toast

Get Funky is a fast-paced sci-fi delivery adventure set in the Nexus VI universe, where a seemingly simple job quickly turns into a dangerous contract you probably should have read first.

Deliver your cargo in under 20 minutes, survive the consequences of being late, and navigate an absurd and unforgiving system where every mission can become much more complicated than expected.
