Stainless "paid real money" for Carmageddon IP to Square Enix

A rather hefty sum was forked over by Carmageddon creator Stainless Games to get the IP back in their hands, but only because Square Enix bought Eidos.

It will apparently be announced at E3 but won't be shown on the floor. The rights have returned to Stainless, but don't seem to be behind the development.
