THQ Nordic to Distribute 8 to Glory Bull Riding Game

THQ Nordic and Three Gates Studios today announced a global, physical distribution agreement for 8 to Glory – the official game of PBR (Professional Bull Riders). 8 to Glory captures all the thrills and spills of the most punishing sport on dirt and will be available for the PlayStation 4 computer entertainment system and the Xbox One family of devices, including the Xbox One X on October 30 (SRP: $29.99/€29.99).

“While stationed many miles away from the center of the sport, the team at THQ Nordic holds the athleticism and intensity of professional bull riders in the highest esteem,” said Ken George, THQ Nordic. “We believe the team at Three Gates has honored what they do with the grittiest, most authentic bull-riding experience available, and we can’t wait to see how players react when we launch 8 to Glory worldwide next month.”

“The irony of an Austro-Swedish partnership bringing a decidedly American experience to the world is not lost on us and we love it!” said Don Geyer, CEO at Three Gates. “THQ Nordic has swiftly risen to the top in terms of global publishers, and we could not have chosen a better partner to ensure that 8 to Glory reaches the massive – and growing – PBR fan community.”

As a journalist John has covered everything from rural town meetings to the U.S. Congress and even done time as a crime reporter and photographer.|His first venture into writing about the game industry came in the form of a computer column called "On the Chip Side," which grew to have over 1 million circulation and was published in newspapers in several states. From there he did several "ask the computer guy" columns in magazines such as Up Front! in New Mexico and Who Cares? in Washington D.C. When the Internet started to become popular, he began writing guided Web tours for the newly launched Washington Post online section as well as reviews for the weekend section of the paper, something he still does from time to time. His experience in trade publications came as a writer and reviewer for Government Computer News. As the editor of GiN, he demands strict editorial standards from all the writers and reviewers. Breeden feels the industry needs a weekly, reliable trade publication covering the games industry and works tirelessly to accomplish that goal.
