With the financial collapse of THQ numerous titles and development houses were left facing an uncertain fate. Among these we find even Vigil Games, creative software house of Darksiders , which fortunately has found a new home in the last hours. With the opening of a new American study at Austin, Crytek has decided to take on David Adams, founder of Vigil Games, as CEO of Crytek USA along with other 35 employees from the same company.

This is therefore a new beginning for the now ex-Vigil Games and a continuous expansion to Crytek, who recently gave birth to the new Turkish Istanbul studio dedicated to games free-to-play. However, despite this fruitful unification, the Darksiders , whose rights belong to THQ for the time being, it remains at the mercy of the order pending the conclusion of financial auctions.
