Message: <blockquote data-quote="Wolverine GTR" data-source="post: 22858841" data-attributes="member: 158020">THQ Nordic has acquired Koch Media <img src="https://i.imgur.com/93dDxM3.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> THQ Nordic today entered into an agreement with Koch Media Holding to  acquire 100 percent of the share capital in Koch Media. The total  consideration amounts to 121 million euros on a cash and debt free  basis. As such, the highly anticipated game, Metro: Exodus, will be now  published by THQ Nordic. Koch Media’s Games business area comprises the game developer and  publishing label Deep Silver which owns the IP to Dead Island, Metro  (exclusive licence), Saints Row, Risen, Homefront, and Agents of Mayhem  amongst others. Since 2002, Deep Silver has released more than 200  games, including its own brands, such as the open-world  third-person-shooter Saints Row IV, the Dead Island series, the  role-playing series Risen, and the strategy hit Galaxy on Fire for  mobile platforms. Furthermore, the label has published titles such as  the post-apocalyptic Metro: Redux and Brian Fargo’s classic RPG  Wasteland 2. Deep Silver owns three development studios: Deep Silver  Volition in the US, Deep Silver Fishlabs in Germany, and Deep Silver  Dambuster Studios in the UK. According to the press release, THQ Nordic will closely monitor and  delegate resources to support Koch Media’s Games business in order to  ensure quality and a healthy return on investment on its large in-house  development projects. Following less successful launches in recent years  with substantial write-offs in the business area (primarily Agents of  Mayhem and Homefront), Koch Media has made significant organisational  changes in its management, internal steering and control, technology, as  well as its selection process for development of IPs. With the  competence THQ Nordic possesses on management level, Koch Media will be  better positioned to deliver the full potential of its development  projects in the future. What’s really interesting here is that THQ Nordic announced  a couple of days ago that Darksiders 3, Biomutant and Fade to Silence  will be released on GOG without any DRM. As such, it will be interesting  to see whether the publisher will release a DRM-free version of Metro:  Exodus!</blockquote>
