It's VERY unlikely they'll ever come back because Interplay is all but bankrupt (or is it actually bankrupt at this point?) and their relationship with Parallax is rather strained.

They may never come back as Interplay-published titles, but I think some users here are wondering whether, as a result of the breach of contract or of Interplay's bankruptcy or maybe other reasons, Parallax could permit them to be sold here without patching up the situation with Interplay. Maybe Parallax could terminate the contract in a way that lets them become their own publishers, or assign it to some other publisher that behaves better.

I have a question for anyone who can answer it, I downloaded Descent 1&2 off of here before it was taken down. I just started playing it again and realized there was alternate levels within the file folders. However, I cannot for the life of me find any information regarding how to access the Descent: Levels of the World files and play them. Any help would be appreciated.

How long can parallax last until bankruptcy at which point interplay buys the copyrights at auction... interplay seems like it could win

Depending on how Parallax is structured and who has authority to execute contracts in its name, it is even possible that the collapse of Parallax would transfer its rights for Descent to some other party prior to assets going up for auction.
[Edit: forum software apparently does not understand relative links. Link converted to absolute form, with the hope that GOG never restructures their forum paths.]
