They had GRRM write Elden Ring. They can get Amy Henning to write SR before she retires

It has Souls in the name already.

Lords of the Fallen did the dual world thing

A weakened hero taking on bosses who are literally gods?

Worst case we get the Lies of P studio to do it

I'd say THQ Nordic could maybe do it justice. They remade the Destroy All Humans! games and those were great imo.

So, yeah. THQ Nordic is owned by the aformentioned Embracer. They got no money. Everything they have is currently being shut down and will likely all be sold off to pay the bills in the next year unless they pull a mega hit out of their behind

My real hope is that they sell off the IPs to a capable group. They sure gobbled up some great IPs and then did fuck all with them

Maybe they could do, I dunno... Soul Reaver?

[–] echo64@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I love Soul Revear and the cain series, but they weren't even hits at their most popular ;) Embracer needs a huge injection of money just to keep going. huge

That means only one thing: Gex!

Unironically, that seems like a pretty easy game to remaster and turn for a profit. But also, they seem like they could ask Sony for funding in exchange for exclusivity. People don't like exclusives, but sometimes it can fund stuff that wouldn't normally get made.
