THQ has announced that its remaining assets will be sold, following the company\u2019s bankruptcy in December 2012.<\/p>\n

THQ\u2019s initial IPs, which included some big-name hitters, such as the Saints Row and Metro licenses, were auctioned off to the highest bidders. Ubisoft and Crytek were among the companies who acquired the publishing rights.<\/p>\n

The company is now putting its prized possessions, Darksiders, Red Faction, Homeworld and others up for grabs.<\/p>\n

Owned and licenced software, featuring Marvel Super Hero Squad, Supreme Commander and Destroy All Humans among others, will also be on auction.<\/p>\n

The IPs will be sold in a court-supervised sale process, which the bids need to be submitted by 1 April 2013.<\/p>\n
