Everything revealed during the 2023 THQ Nordic Showcase
THQ Nordic announced their showcase months ago, which meant that the gaming audience has had that time to speculate what games would be shown, revealed and teased.
Now that the showcase is here, a new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game, adapting The Last Ronin comic series, was very unlikely on any list of potentials, but that is the fun of these showcases. The studio confirmed that they have 37 games in development, with 20 of them being unknown to the public, so the below list is just a sample of what games can look forward to.
