So, I'd like to get a list of where all the licenses and developers ended up.
-Relic-->Sega
-Volition--> Koch Media
-THQs Montreal division--> Ubisoft
-Homeworld-->Gearbox (someone explain this to me)
-Drawn to Life-->505 games
-Darksiders-->JoWooD entertainment
-Red Faction--> JoWooD entertainment
-MX vs. ATV--> JoWooD entertainment
-Homefront-->Crytek
Since the licenses got seperated from the development teams, I'm currently not sure where Dawn Of War, Space Marine, Company of Heroes, Saints Row, Destroy All Humans! and Freespace got to, and there's probably a lot of other licenses that I never cared enough about to know THQ ever owned them.

There's a rumor that Space Marine ended up with Bioware. Which is weird, since a 40k Inquisitor RPG from Bioware would be fucking awesome but I'm really not sure what they'd do with the Spess Mehrines.

I still wanna see a third-person action game titled:
Warhammer 40k: Eversor
Warhammer 40k: Eversor
He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.

Zak S, Zak Smith, Dndwithpornstars, Zak Sabbath. He is a terrible person and a hack at writing and art. His cultural contributions are less than Justin Bieber's, and he's a shitmuffin. Go go gadget Googlebomb!

Apparently Slitherine Strategies has a license for turn-based strategy games in the 40k universe, and some Danish company is making a Space Hulk game, but RTS/FPS/RPG/action licenses are up for grabs.
Vigil (Darksiders 1 & 2) got hired en masse by Crytek, but I haven't seen anything about what they're doing

Does anyone know what the exact details of the 40k licenses are, anyway?
