Published from the studio that hosted an AMA on a site banned for child exploitation.

A remake of the old SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom was announced today by THQ Nordic. The publisher said that the remake is called SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated and it is being developed by Purple Lamp Studios.

It took THQ Nordic over 15 hours to remove the link to 8chan from their Twitter timeline. That's 15 hours that a game publisher left up a...

The acquisition by THQ Nordic/Koch Media includes the entirety of the Warhorse development studio, including controversial owner Daniel Vávra, plus all intellectual property rights. Given this acquisition and the recent moves by Koch Media, I'm assuming...
