THQ Nordic has announced it has acquired the rights to the Timesplitters games, as well as Free Radical’s other game Second Sight. The Timesplitter games we considered spiritual successors to Rare’s GoldenEye 007 and Perfect Dark and even featured members from those games development teams.
Timesplitters was largely considered as one of the most influential console games of the early 2000’s. The three game series earned a large and passionate fan base thanks to its unique humour, art style and pop culture references while encouraging customization and modification to give each person their own individual experience. Timesplitters was originally created by the development studio Free Radical Design that later become Deep Silver Dambuster, part of the THQ Nordic group.
This means a new Timesplitters game could be on the way, but knowing THQ Nordic it more likely means ports – which we wouldn’t object to.
First time for the series on a Nintendo platform.
Lets'a go look inside.
