Interplay owns the rights to a slew of gaming IPs, a number of which have appeared on Nintendo platforms. The company is responsible for Earthworm Jim, Freespace, Giants, Kingpin, Messiah, MDK, Run Like Hell, Sacrifice, Battlechess, Clayfighter, Dark Alliance, Descent, and more.

Interplay is now looking to sell off its library of gaming assets and intellectual property. In total, about 70 titles and dozens of characters will be up for grabs. Interested parties will now be able to submit offers, though it’ll likely be awhile before we hear about any purchases.

Thanks to Lars for the tip.

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night was originally scheduled to arrive next March. Unfortunately, the game is now seeing a major delay.

In a Kickstarter update, creator Koji Igarashi explained that he wants to ensure that the project meets his “quality standards”. With the team’s “current production set-up and release deadline,” that may have been impossible to realize. New developers are now being brought in to keep development going at a steady pace. This all means that Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night won’t be ready until the first half of 2018.

Here’s the news straight from Igarashi:
