Relic to Release Company of Heroes 2 In 2013

An article from UK PC gamer has revealed that Vancouver RTS darling Relic Entertainment is hard at work on Company of Heroes 2, which is to be released in 2013. The sequel to the 2006 WWII tactical squad game will focus on the Eastern Front, and will feature vehicles like the T-34S Tank. Let’s all hope THQ can keep their head above water in time for this gem to be released to the public.

THQ Seeking “Partner” For Warhammer 40k MMO

After rumours of imminent bankruptcy and a NASDAQ share price of $0.66, THQ has resorted to seeking out investors to finance its Warhammer 40k: Dark Millenium MMO project, due out in 2014. Even with the company’s financial troubles it’s no surprise that THQ is seeking help. Bioware’s recently released Star Wars: The Old Republic cost over $100 million to produce, and it’s been the only game in almost a decade to even challenge World of Warcraft. Still, we should all hope that THQ is successful in finding a patron for Dark Millenium.  Relic Entertainment’s previous entries into the Warhammer lexicon, Dawn of War and Space Marine, were nothing short of superlative. It would be a shame for that streak to end.
