THQ Inc. (also known as THQ Nordic) was a North American developer and publisher of video games. Founded in 1989 in the United States, the company developed products for video game consoles, handheld game consoles, as well as for personal computers and wireless devices. Its name derives from "Toy Head-Quarters" during the time when the company was a toy manufacturer in the early 1990s.

The company published internally created, and externally licensed content in its product portfolio. THQ's internally created games included the Saints Row series, Frontlines: Fuel of War, the Red Faction series, MX vs. ATV, Company of Heroes, and the Dawn of War series, among others. The company also held exclusive, and long-term licensing agreements with leading sports and entertainment content creators, including Nickelodeon. As such, many Nickelodeon video games were published by THQ from 1992 to 2012, including under the Play THQ label starting in 2007.

After several years of financial struggles and an increasing amount of debt, THQ filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in December 2012. On January 22, 2013, the company sold off all but one of its studios and related properties at an auction to other video game developers, with the Nickelodeon license going to Activision. In addition, most of the remaining staff was laid off.

In 2014, the THQ trademark was acquired by Nordic Games, which had acquired some of THQ's properties in the auction. The company renamed itself THQ Nordic in August 2016. It was later announced on March 21, 2018, that THQ Nordic would be re-releasing many of THQ's Nicktoon video games for newer consoles.[1]
