According to Kevin Dent, a ten year veteran in the digital games industry, THQ has stopped all work on Disney license and cancelled their full 2014 lineup, which includes a proposed Warhammer 40K MMORPG. Also in the rumour mill was a sale of all their business to Asian firms. Kevin Dent himself announced this on his Twitter feed. 

I reported earlier this month about THQ having to cut a few employee's loose from their team, but something of this magnitude is almost unheard of. Even though they did cut those employees from the uDraw staff, which is boggling considering the upcoming WiiU, Saints Row the Third was the 9th best-selling title of 2011. Later in 2012 THQ have planned releases for Metro Last Light, South Park RPG, Dawn of War 3, UFC3 and Darksiders II to look forward to, but at the moment this is all speculation and rumour, as Dent states.
