THQ Nordic buys Piranha Bytes studio

  • 2648

Piranha Bytes will not lose its creative freedom and will continue to be able to approach its projects at its own discretion. At the same time, THQ also acquired rights to Risen, Elex and Gothic. At this point it is worth remembering that the last game from the Gothic series, for which "Piranas" are responsible, is part 3. The studio had nothing to do with Arcania, because after parting with JoWooD, it temporarily lost its rights to the brand.

Sounds nice. In such tempo THQ will become a AAA-"shark" like a EA, UbiSoft, Bethesda etc. Also Soon™ - THQ Game Launcher. =)




Still pretty human

ELEX was really bad; same with Risen 3 and 2 was only ok. I hope THQ Nordic brings the franchises on track again.

Damn - you may be right!




Man do I miss games like Gothic I and Gothic II + Night of the Raven.
