THQ Nordic announced that asset purchase agreements with Mobile Gaming Studios Ltd. and Enigma Software Productions S.L. have been closed. Out of the agreement, THQ Nordic now has in its portfolio the Legend of War and Sphinx licenses.

Lars Wingefors, founder and Group CEO, comments: “These are not financially material acquisitions, but due to our love for these types of games they were natural acquisition targets that add up to our portfolio. Moreover, we also got a lot of messages from fans that encouraged us to add them. Among these titles, Sphinx (and the Cursed Mummy) is very well suited for the Nintendo audience – which we love to support. We are excited for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo’s new platform, and already have two other projects in development for it.”

Acquired from Mobile Gaming Studios Ltd, Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy is a third person action-adventure video game inspired by the mythology of Ancient Egypt. It was originally released for Gamecube, PS2 and the original Xbox.

And the publisher has also obtained two licenses from Enigma Software Productions S.L.:

  • War Leaders: Clash of Nations is a turn-based global strategy game bundled with a real-time tactics game mode for PC.
  • Legends of War is a turn-based strategy video game series franchise created in 2010. It was released for PS3, PSP and Xbox 360.
