News: It sounds like you will want to tune in to their showcase this week for some game announcements, as well as some free games.

THQ Nordic is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year and they are going to have a digital party. You can join them on their first digital showcase on September 17th at 9 pm CEST / 12:00 PM PST / 8 PM BST / 10 PM MSK. It will be streamed on YouTube, Twitch, and Steam. They are also giving you a present: claim two free games and keep them forever.

The Showcase will be hosted by Geoff Keighley, executive producer and host of The Game Awards. On the THQ Nordic Showcase, six new game announcements will be made on a journey through time and space. 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. Besides these six announcements, new information and footage for Open-World-Sci-Fi-Fantasy RPG ELEX II will be shown and the developers from CRPG Expeditions: Rome will give an update & show what they've been working on.
