THQ Nordic has bought yet another portfolio of old franchises, this lot being from NovaLogic, famous for military shooters and simulators like F-22, Delta Force and Joint Operations. NovaLogic reached fame in the late eighties and nineties, but also had some success in the noughties.
All games and assets are now owned by THQ Nordic, and the founder and CEO of NovaLogic John Garcia said:
"After 30 years of creating ground breaking computer and video games we are proud to pass the baton to THQ Nordic. As individuals, they are enthusiastic gamers and as a company have shown the agility and acumen needed to propel our industry towards a much-needed reset. We are happy to see the franchises we created in such capable hands."
Of course, THQ also had a few words about this, and Business and Product Development Director Reinhard Pollice said:
"NovaLogic pioneered military simulations and military-themed multiplayer shooters with vehicular combat and also clearly targeted at an adult audience. We are extremely satisfied with the new additions to our portfolio, and also very thrilled about how to continue some of said franchises, we are open for talks in this regard if any developer approaches us with a concept for a potential sequel to any IP."
This means there might be some revived military shooters if everything works out as THQ Nordic surely hope for. Do you have any favorite developers you would like to see take on any of these brands?
