The games that will appear at the event are being kept “top secret.” However, seeing how THQ Nordic has provided a “save the date” video that specifically displays certain games, it seems reasonable to believe they will show up at the August 2022 showcase. For instance, the video highlights SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake, Outcast 2: A New Beginning, and Jagged Alliance 3. Surprisingly, Biomutant even shows up, so perhaps some DLC or other news is coming for that peculiar title.

Details are scant on SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake, but it’s coming to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC and seems likely to play in the vein of SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated. Meanwhile, Outcast 2 is an open-world action adventure for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X | S. And Jagged Alliance 3 is a tactical RPG from the developer of Surviving Mars. So, between these titles and yet unannounced titles, the August 2022 THQ Nordic digital showcase should have a pretty eclectic lineup.
