WWE License acquired by Take-Two
« on: 23 January 2013, 11:03:10 PM »
Still breaking, no price yet, looks like it will fall under the 2K branding.

THQ Assets Sold At Auction: Sega, Ubisoft, Take-Two and Deep Silver Among Big Winners | Better With Popcorn

Otherwise, Sega gets Company of Heroes, Ubisoft gets South Park and THQ Montreal, Saints Row goes to Deep Silver.


Think I'll have a wank over these tomorrow.

Do they just get the game title or do they get the employees? I am interested in seeing what direction Saints Row will take from here.

Depends on what we're talking about. For WWE it's just the license as THQ just published, but that means Take Two gets to choose who develops it. They could drop Yukes and do it in-house if they wanted. For others, like Volition and Saints Row, they get the studio, which means they get everything, employees, buildings, computers, desks, and of course the license to make the game.
