‘Destroy All Humans!’ Gets Release Date!

With the recent news of declassified information about UFO’s this is kind of fitting (or ominous) that today THQ Nordic has announced the release date for the upcoming re-release of their 2005 cult classic alien invasion game Destroy All Humans! will be arriving on earth this summer! Play as Crypto-137, a smart-alecky alien sent to a stereotypical 1950’s Earth to cause mayhem while getting instructions from his superior Orthopox (voiced by Invader Zim himself, Richard Steven Horvitz!). Hilarity ensues as Crypto uses an arsenal of alien weaponry and abilities to conquer humanity. Players will also be able to fly Crypto’s flying saucer and use it as a weapon or to just fling cows around with the tractor beam. Much like the “Grand Theft Auto” series, the more mayhem you cause, the bigger the response by the humans! Pre-orders are available for Destroy All Humans! and through selected channels, you could earn some pre-order skin packs! Destroy All Humans! will be

‘Gothic’ Remake Will Head Into Production Says THQ Nordic!

Previously I wrote about THQ Nordic announcing the possibility of remaking the legendary action RPG game Gothic. Along with the news they released a playable teaser on STEAM in which afterward 180,000 players answered survey questions and the results were as THQ Nordic put it, “unambiguous”, 94.8% of fans loved what they saw and support the idea of a remake. Today THQ Nordic announced that the Gothic remake will be going into production! THQ Nordic will be establishing a new studio in Barcelona, Spain that will take on the task of creating the remake using player feedback. One big demand by players is a grittier and less colorful world in the final game than what was seen in the playable teaser. The Gothic remake will not be coming anytime soon but will be developed for PC and next-gen consoles.
