THQ's latest auction of intellectual properties has attracted 17 final bids, and is expected to generate $US6-7 million.

The auction included the rights to franchises such as Darksiders, Red Faction and Homeworld, and ended on April 15.

The sales will be presented to the bankruptcy court for approval next month.

According to Bloomberg, when all is said and done THQ’s unsecured creditors should expect to recover between 20-52% of their estimated US$143-$184 million in claims owed.

The majority of THQ's properties were sold via auction in January.
