Double Fine Interested in THQ Assets Sale
Has requested publisher's bankruptcy filings.
The sale of THQ's assets and IP later this month has attracted the interest of Tim Schafer and Ron Gilbert's Double Fine studio, according to a new report.
Distressed Debt Investing, which announced the THQ sale earlier this week, revealed on Twitter that "Double Fine has requested the bankruptcy filings in the THQ case."
The two companies worked together on digitally-distributed titles Stacking and Costume Quest, so the Brütal Legend developer could well be interested in getting the rights for its creations back.
Double Fine has made no secret in the past that it somewhat laments the fact that other publishers hold the key to the creations of its developers. In particular, the Monkey Island series, which was created by Ron Gilbert and owned by LucasArts.
