THQ Nordic's Showcase is back! Our Digital Showcase 2024, airing exactly 3 months from now, will be full of world premiere announcements, updates for previously-announced games and might even hold some surprises! Mark your calendar as the Digital Showcase 2024 goes live on Friday, August 2, 2024, at 12:00 PM PDT / 3 PM EDT / 8 PM BST / 9 PM CEST / 10 PM MSK. Our friends from HandyGames will kick things off with a pre-show once again, so tune in early and don't miss out on the fun!

We don't want to spoil too much, though, THQ Nordic will serve news for Gothic 1 Remake, Titan Quest II, and much more, but we'll keep the grim secrets to ourselves for now. Stay tuned!

I just want Wreckfest 2 ,man!!!

 

[FoxMcChief]

Seems like I’ve seen Titan Quest 2 on GameFly “coming soon” for 84 years.

 

[Puscifer]

Seems like I’ve seen Titan Quest 2 on GameFly “coming soon” for 84 years.

It was announced a year ago and they've been publishing regular updates on Steam about it's development

 

[GymWolf]

Curious to see both games.

 

[Deerock71]

THQ Nordic low-key has been one of the best 3rd parties on Switch.

 

[Valt7786]

Darksiders 4 you cucks!
(If they still own it? I think they do)

 

[Denton]

Finally, Gothic gameplay. I hope..

 

[CamHostage]

This will be a very different THQ Nordic show than in the past... But I do hope that they have a few titles which help turn around the conversation and trends.

 

[Dazraell]

Finally, Gothic gameplay. I hope..

Seems very likely we will see a proper gameplay either on this showcase or on Gamescom. Still unsure if the release will be slated for later this year or early 2025 though

 

[Kacho]

Nice. Interested in both.

 

[StereoVsn]

I loved Gothic and Gothic 2. Titan Quest was also pretty good. So both of the items would be welcomed… it’s just I don’t know if I trust anything Gothic related to be good anymore.

The last decent game from them was Risen.

Piranha Bytes is not involved with this remake but Alkimia Interactive, a new studio THQ Nordic has founded a few years ago. That being said, they hired some of the original devs from Piranha Bytes including Kai Rosenkranz, composer of Gothic 1-3 and Risen 1 soundtracks and some of the devs who worked on Chronicles of Myrtana: Archolos mod

 

[ahtlas7]

Yes! I was afraid it was cancelled.

 

[Mr Hyde]

Any word on Darksiders? I'm guessing 3 and Genesis didn't do all that well but I think the franchise should move forward regardless with a new entry. Preferable more in the vein of 1 & 2.

 

[Arsic]

I’m in for both, but especially tiddy quest 2.

Full nut hype !

If something is in development, it's most likely a different dev than ones you mentioned as Gunfire (Darksiders III studio) seems to be still busy with supporting Remnant 2 and Airship Syndicate (Genesis dev) released a game last year

 

[Kataploom]

Darksiders please, that's basically all I care about them lol

 

[Draugoth]

Wrong post

 

[digital_ghost]

i predict

Udraw tablet 2: Return of the Bankruptcy

 

[Dazraell]

Yes! I was afraid it was cancelled.

It's still in development. If you're curious about this game, devs are frequently posting quite lengthy updates about it on Steam

 

[KyoZz]

I just want Wreckfest 2 ,man!!!

It was on the Nvidia leak

I'm so ready for it

 

[VeganElduderino]

Uh!? Where did you see that ?

 

[KyoZz]

Additional games: Wreckfest Sequel = ✓

 

[intbal]

I would love a Kingdoms of Amalur sequel.
They already built new tools to make the DLC for the remaster. So part of the work is already done.

 

[Dazraell]

Oh yeah, Nvidia Leak also had Destroy All Humans 3 as well

Gothic 1 Remake and Titan Quest II I'm most interested in.

 

[TintoConCasera]

Should get to play Titan Quest soon. Tried it on the Deck and it worked great, plus it has native gamepad support.

It's better than Diablo 3 and 4 combined. (I know, not the highest bar... but still...)

 

[TintoConCasera]

Played it for a bit many years ago and had a lot of fun, so yeah I can buy that.

I'm also curious about Grim Dawn, but when it comes to the setting, I'd rather play TQ.

 

[fart town usa]

I'm hyped for this. Really curious about Gotchic remake. Epic Mickey is gonna be cool. Titan Quest 2 is hype. Really hope they show The Last Ronin. Don't sleep on THQ Nordic.

 

[Dazraell]

Seems like Tarsier Studios (Little Nightmares devs) will announce a new game there

 

[DavidGzz]

Goddamn, it's good to be a ARPG fan. D4 keeps getting better, PoE2 is close and TQ2 as well.

 

[Darkmakaimura]

Darksiders please, that's basically all I care about them lol

You and me both.

But it seems like no one else really cares here or anywhere else so I suspect the IP is pretty much dead at this point.

I care about darksiders

 

[Labadal]

I would love to see something Jagged Alliance related. JA3 was top tier tactical rpg.

 

[Denton]

GOTHIC GAMEPLAY COME ON

 

[Bartski]

Empowered woman in 3..2..1….

 

[Chuck Berry]

More Darksiders please

Fuck even a performance upgrade for D3 Id be happy about

 

[amigastar]

Titan Quest II lets go!!

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

I'm starting to realize I like a decent number of THQ Nordic published games.
Interested in Gothic. Gotta check out this showcase!

If I remember correctly, Embracer recently mentioned on one of their financial raports they consider Darksiders as one of THQ Nordic's key franchises. I think they haven't done too much with this in recent years probably because Gunfire (devs of Darksiders III) and Airship (devs of Genesis) were busy with other projects

 

[SJRB]

GOTHIC GAMEPLAY COME ON

You got it dawg!

 

[amigastar]

Gothic Remake looks more faithful to the original than i've thought, still sceptical about it, though.

 

[anthony2690]

Only thing standing out to me so far is titan quest 2, I've never heard of titan quest though.

 

[Labadal]

Titan Quest II looks really impressive. Gothic II, I hope for goodness, but I am not sure.

 

[March Climber]

Thank you for the bump of awareness fart town usa

 

[Denton]

You got it dawg!

I could not take the HORRIBLE BITRATE AND SOUND (whoever is responsible for this at THQN should get fired asap) so I am gonna watch the standalone trailer

 

[The_hunter]

They teased Darksiders at the end.
