It was a grim time when developer/publisher THQ went bankrupt and had to sell off some of its properties resulting in an uncertain and bleak future for games like the Saints Row series and Darksiders series. But things are definitely looking up as, following an interesting turn of events, almost all the games that were developed under the THQ banner have come in possession of THQ Nordic. A huge chunk of it can be attributed to the recent announcement made by THQ Nordic, stating that it will be taking over Koch Media.
