poor THQ montreal, left Ubisoft and now they are back in

Damn its such a shame :/

also means both Warhammer franchises are under Sega's roof ( Relic and 40k - Creative Assembly, warhammer fantasy)

Exactly my point and the only interesting thing here :x

Looks like someone way over bidded

Sure but they bid 16mil over the runner up

I just hope whoever will make Darksiders 3 and 4 (not sure if there will be more) will not fuck up this great game.

CAN WE ALL AGREE THAT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING HERE IS WHEN/WHAT SEGA WILL DO WITH RELIC/THE MOST IMPORTANT IP IN THE GAMES INDUSTRY RITE NAUW?

I think noone but Vigil games will make DS3-4 if they ever get the opportunity to make them, but unsure where they landed in all of this.

yeah as of now, Vigil has not even been bid on.

Dare one hope Activision takes on the herculian task of making a success full WH(40k) game, or would it then be too obvious all the things they've copied to WoW, Starcraft, etc? Wait what am I saying, Blizzard invented elves, orcs, tyranids and made the first mmorpg ever.

Volition is not only Saints Row. They hold the rights to the whole Red Faction and Freespace franchise as well.
And Let's not forget that Saints Row 4 is due for release this year.

Sega proly made the best deal here tho..Company of Heroes 2 is ready for release in March and expected to be a huge success

Also hoping for a new Homeworld game from Relic

Never heard of Koch Media.. hope they don't screw up.

Blackspear

It seems noone bought Vigil and that they died. According to sources like http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=46817540&postcount=325

Wow what a bs ;/

Seems like platinum games is showing interest in buying the Darksiders franchise.

What happened to the wh40 mmo that later turned in to some singleplayer action game? It's completely canceled now?

Give 40k mmo
