In their ongoing mission to own the world’s largest collection of intellectual property rights to perfectly decent action games that make people nod and say “Yeah I liked that back in the day” when reminded of them, an arm of THQ Nordic has grabbed Free Radical Design’s time-travelling FPS series TimeSplitters. Crytek had previously owned the TimeSplitters rights, picking them up along with the Free Radical in 2008. Well, Crytek sold the studio to Koch Media in 2014, and now Koch Media (who are now owned by THQ Nordic) have nabbed the rights and will have a TimeSplitters game made under their Deep Silver label.
Hey, you wanna meddle with time, you better get used to a few weird and confusing chains of name changes.
