An anonymous employee of Relic Entertainment, a subsidiary of THQ based in Vancouver, has confided that work on their projects, both “announced and unannounced” and including the MMO Warhammer 40k: Dark Millennium Online, will continue, rejecting rumours that THQ have cancelled their games and may be closing down, “assuming things don’t suddenly change drastically Monday morning”.

Relic are responsible for the Homeworld, Company of Heroes, and Warhammer 40,000 games. The company, originally an independent games developer, was acquired by THQ in May 2004 for a sum that was reported as “close to $10 million”. Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War was the first title released by the team following the THQ acquisition.

Hours ago, Kevin Dent claimed via Twitter that THQ had cancelled all of their projects planned for launch in 2014. No confirmation or denial has yet come from THQ or any of its subsidiaries, but the environment could change drastically at the beginning of the work week.
