Four THQ Titles Outed In Bankruptcy Filing
THQ's Chapter 11 filing has revealed the titles of four of the company's current projects, including the game Patrice Désilets is working on at THQ Montreal.
Polygon ferreted the game titles out of THQ's legal documents, which reveal what each company is working on. They are as follows:
- Crawler, the working title for the new game being developed by Darksiders' creators, Vigil Games.
- Atlas, the working title for a new game from Relic Entertainment, scheduled to release in calendar year 2014.
- Evolve, a new game from Left 4 Dead creators Turtle Rock Studios.
- 1666, the game currently under development at THQ Montreal, led by former Assassin's Creed creative director Patrice Désilets.
While the documents list the names as working titles, THQ has issued trademarks for both "Evolve" and "1666." Earlier today, THQ president Jason Rubin tweeted that Company of Heroes 2, Metro: Last Light, and South Park: The Stick of Truth are all still on schedule, so hopefully these four games also won't be affected by the sale.
