Bankrupt game publisher Midway has today âestablished the timelineâ for selling of its assets, studios and intellectual property to the highest bidder, meaning that Smash TV and Joust could be yours⊠for the right price.
Midway already has a $33 million offer from Warner Bros. to acquire a good deal of the companyâs goods, including rights to Mortal Kombat and studios in Chicago and Seattle. But thatâs not everything, as Midway will be putting TNA Wrestling, its âOpen World Games, Casual Games, and Full Classic IP Libraryâ up for auction next month.
