THQ Nordic 10th Anniversary Showcase: How To Watch, What To Expect

THQ Nordic marks its 10th anniversary this year, and the publisher is holding a special showcase to celebrate. The event takes place this Friday, September 17, and we're rounding up all the key details on how to watch it and what to expect. One of the announcements has seemingly leaked ahead of time, as PlayStation's Twitter account recently revealed a remake of Destroy All Humans 2. The celebration also includes free games and discounts, so be sure to read on to get all the information.

Who's Hosting?

Geoff Keighley, a games media veteran known for hosting and organizing The Game Awards, Gamescom's Opening Night Live event, and others will host The THQ Nordic showcase.

What To Expect

There will be six new game announcements during the THQ Nordic showcase, one of which is presumably the leaked Destroy All Humans 2 remake. The reveals will include sequels and original IPs.

"Witness the return of legendary franchises, where the fans are waiting for decades to get their hands on a new installment, sequels to beloved games, and new original IPs. We hope you are ready, kids!" the publisher said.

In addition to the six reveals, THQ Nordic will announce new information about the fantasy RPG Elex II will be revealed alongside an update on Expeditions: Rome.
