Between layoffs, the threat of a NASDAQ delisting, and a lawsuit, it's safe to say THQ has had its share of difficulties over the last several months. More is riding on the publisher's current portfolio than usual, and now it's trying to polish its tent-pole titles to perfection.
More bad news for beleaguered publisher THQ. Warhammer 40,000: Dark Millennium will no longer be a MMO, as originally planned. Instead, it will be "an immersive single player and online multiplayer experience with robust digital content, and engaging community features."
"As previously announced, we have been actively looking for a business partner for the game as an MMO," THQ president and CEO Brian Farrell said in the surprise announcement. "However, based on changing market dynamics and the additional investment required to complete the game as an MMO, we believe the right direction for us is to shift the title from an MMO to a premium experience with single and multiplayer gameplay, robust digital content and community features."
