Carmageddon II: Carpocalypse Now.

THQ Nordic adds Carmageddon to its old IP garage

THQ Nordic announced today that it has acquired the Carmageddon franchise from developer Stainless Games.

THQ Nordic is building itself up as a large midsized publisher. This trend started in 2013 when the company bought the THQ name and its IP when that publisher went bankrupt. THQ Nordic has been bringing in both modern franchises like Goat Simulator and forgotten series like TimeSplitters and Kingdoms of Amalur.
