The final properties left after the THQ bankruptcy have been auctioned off to the highest bidders. In total these assets went for $6.55 million. Most publicised was the sale of Homeworld, one developer tried to gain support to buy it on Kickstarter/Indiegogo (but came up short, around $70,000), Paradox and Stardock tweeted about coming up short in the bidding and in the end it was Gearbox Software winning with a bid of $1.35 million. A bit surprising perhaps given their FPS pedigree, but the developer picked up Duke Nukem in similar circumstances a couple of years ago.
The main bulk of the properties were won by Nordic Games (Gothic, Painkiller, Alan Wake PC) including Darksiders, Red Faction, MX vs ATV, Destroy All Humans, Titan Quest, Full Spectrum Warrior. Supreme Commander, Frontlines, Stuntman - for a total of $4.9 million. Nordic Games are no strangers to picking up properties this way as they bought the bankrupt Jowood a couple of years ago. In total Nordic Games picked up 150 SKUs.
Finally, 505 Games secured the rights for Drawn to Life and Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter for $300,000.
Finalisation of the deals are pending approval from the bankruptcy court overseeing THQ.
