Nordic gives update on THQ acquisitions, talking with former Vigil staffers for Darksiders
It’s been a few months since Nordic Games acquired some of THQ’s key franchises, including Darksiders. Where do things stand at the moment?
Nordic’s Reinhard Pollice told Joystiq:
“It takes longer than expected getting everything together because THQ, there are not a lot of people there. There are just like five people and they’re mostly financial and administration guys. So the stuff that we need is really hard to get. I’ve been visiting them a lot of times, trying to make sure we get everything that we actually want, or that we should get.”
Darksiders was among the more interesting franchises picked up by Nordic. However, a new entry is still a very long ways off. Nordic is currently in contact with a few staffers from the now-defunct Vigil Games, though because a “certain core” of employees moved on to Crytek US, they probably won’t be working on any future Darksiders projects.
