Blood Bowl's videogame rights have been acquired by Slitherine and at this point I'll take any change as a good sign

Slitherine, the publisher of the Panzer Corps series as well Warhammer 40,000 games like Battlesector and Gladius, has picked up the rights to publish the Blood Bowl series of fantasy sports parodies.

The publishing rights used to belong to Nacon, who filed for insolvency back in February. That resulted in the death of Greedfall developer Spiders and left a question-mark hanging over its hardware efforts as well as the future of Blood Bowl 3. Developers Cyanide had previously announced a plan to update the videogame to make it compatible with the tabletop version's latest rules refresh and rerelease it under the name Warhammer Blood Bowl, a plan that's been delayed but now seems set to go ahead under the new publisher.
