So is this the ‘sequel’ that has been rumoured on Twitter?

When Jason – Rebellion’s CEO and co-founder - tweeted earlier in the year about a potential follow up to Evil Genius, he wasn’t talking about Evil Genius Online, which was already in development by a small team here in our Oxford studio.

We’ve always wanted to make a fully-featured PC follow-up. We’ve taken concepts for an Evil Genius sequel to publishers before but we weren’t able to secure the funding we needed. However since then, we’ve looked into alternative ways to get this game funded and created. We are going to make this happen. And it’s going to be soon.

We’ve been watching the Evil Genius community for some time now, and we’re sorry that we couldn’t tell you earlier about our plans. If anything, your enthusiasm over the last couple of weeks has galvanized our efforts!

In the next few days a key member from our Oxford studio will be in touch. They want to engage with the EG community and get you involved in the first steps we take towards the next Evil Genius game on PC.

Please make them welcome, and don’t be scared to share your ideas!

Yours Forever Evily

The Rebellion team

For those who don't know, Evil Genius is a base building Sim which has you in the role as an Evil Genius. You build rooms by custom design, lay out traps to kill/capture/disorient/mess with various international spy agencies, and generally do evil things for the sake of being evil.

Basically it's a game about being a James Bond Villain.

Evil Genius is one of my favorite games. This pleases me.

Hopefully this time round they'll make sure not to have game-killing bugs. Evil Genius is an awesome game, but the fact that my saves randomly ****ed up (and apparently that was also a rather common problem) kinda ruined things for me

Colour me excited intrigued.

Basically Dungeon Keeper with an excellent theme. Very promising.

Prepare to build a streak of 4 lvl5 security doors guarding nothing, thus ensuring the safety of your base once and for all!

Awesome nevertheless!
