Maverick Games partners with Focus Entertainment to publish debut racing title Clutch

Amazon Game Studios ended its publishing agreement with Maverick for the then-unannounced game earlier this year

French publisher Focus Entertainment has partnered with Maverick Games to launch its debut racing title, Clutch.

Maverick initially partnered with Amazon Game Studios for the then-unannounced game in 2024. Amazon ended the agreement earlier this year to "focus on projects that leverage Amazon's unique strengths and scale."

Maverick co-founder and COO Harinder Sangha told GamesIndustry.biz that the studio was in "active dialogue with partners who share our long-term ambition for the IP and look forward to sharing more later this year."

Focus Entertainment stated that publishing Clutch will "strengthen [its] portfolio with its first entry into the open-world racing space, driven by a shared ambition to deliver a standout experience and establish Clutch as a major new racing IP."

Clutch is set to launch in Spring 2027 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

"At Focus, we look to partner with creators who are redefining their genre," said Focus Entertainment Publishing deputy CEO Vincent Chataignier. "Mike Brown and his team are regarded as one of the defining creative voices in the racing genre, and Clutch embodies exactly the creative ambition Focus Entertainment wants to champion."

Maverick founder and CEO Mike Brown added: "We founded Maverick Games to build the open-world racing experience we'd dreamed about for years. Focus shares our creative bar and our ambition for Clutch, and we can't wait for players everywhere to discover this world."

Focus Entertainment is a French publisher and a subsidiary of Pullup Entertainment.
