THQ Nordic Acquires Timesplitters IP

THQ Nordic has announced they’ve acquired the Timesplitters intellectual property.

The new acquisition includes all three games from the franchise, including: TimeSplitters, TimeSplitters 2, and TimeSplitters: Future Perfect. Alongside the news of that IP being acquired is that THQ also acquired the rights to the science fiction action-adventure game Second Sight.

Here’s a brief press statement on the news:


Timesplitters was largely considered as one of the most influential console games of the early 2000’s. The three game series earned a large and passionate fan base thanks to its unique humour, art style and pop culture references while encouraging customization and modification to give each person their own individual experience.  Timesplitters was originally created by the development studio Free Radical Design that later become Deep Silver Dambuster, part of the THQ Nordic group.

In addition to Timesplitters, the IP and the rights to science fiction action-adventure game Second Sight were acquired. Both acquisitions were made through THQ Nordic’s fully owned subsidiary Koch Media GmbH.
