THQ Nordic has acquired metricminds, the Germany studio that has focused on animation and in-game cutscenes for various big game productions.

The Frankfurt, Germany based animation studio was founded back in 2001 and has provided the in-game cutscenes, trailers, keyframe animation, motion capture, and even in-engine cinematics for a multitude of titles.

Notable games that metricminds has worked on include games like Horizon Zero Dawn, Horizon Forbidden West, Dying Light, Borderlands 2, The Surge (1 and 2), EVOLVE, Batman Arkham Origins, Tarzan 3D, Darksiders III, The Remnant: From the Ashes and many others, including the upcoming Destroy All Humans 2: Reprobed.

While THQ Nordic has acquired metricminds, the new acquisition will include the entire main team within metricminds, as well as their specialists that work in games, film, and broadcasting.
