Som du måske ved i forvejen så har THQ Nordic for nylig købt en række større spilserier. Udgiveren ønsker at skabe sig en spændende portefolie af klassikere de kan opdatere og reintroducere for et nyt publikum, og for nylig købte de ikke bare Kingdoms of Amalur, men også Alone in the Dark og Act og War.
I et interview med IGN fortæller firmaets Reinhard Pollice, at det ikke bare er kærligheden til disse serier der gør at de har købt licenserne, men også at det er sund forretningsfornuft.
"It's the games we loved in the past. We think they should still have a place, and we feel like it's sometimes such a pity that there is no game like that out there, so whenever there's an opportunity to get the original, we just grab it instead of creating something new.
"Whenever we acquire stuff, we really see it first from a game perspective. Is this something relevant? Is this something cool? Was it unique when it came out? Does it have a fan base? These sorts of questions are very important to us."
Pollice har noteret at THQ Nordic endnu ikke er færdige med at købe spilserier.
