Sequels A-Plenty

[Marky]

Hey all,

Eidos' Ian Livingstone, recently named Wookiee Life President or Square Enix Proconsul or something, gave a kitchen-sink interview in which sequels for nearly every major Eidos IP were tipped, teased or confirmed.

Speaking to Gaming Indians, Livingstone says IO Interactive is working on a new Hitman title; Kane and Lynch 2 has a hoped-for release of September, and he doesn't exactly dispel the idea that Eidos Montreal's "secret project" is Thief IV.

That leaves Tomb Raider, which released Underworld last year to disappointing sales. Are they working on a sequel to that, too? Oh hell yes they are!

"The next Tomb Raider, I think, will surprise a lot of people and reinvigorate the franchise. There are some remarkable things we're doing in the next Tomb Raider to make you say, "Oh Lara, I love you so much!"

All this is in addition to Deus Ex 3, already underway at Montreal. (Livingstone indicates that might be released in 2010.) What, no Just Cause 2? Oh, right ...

That's five projects, all of them sequels. I think

So there you go, five sexy sequels rumoured to be on their way.

I'm most happy about the possible Hitman sequel, I love them games
I'm also very surprised about a Kane & Lynch sequel scheduled for September - if that's the case, we should hear more about it at e3 2009

Thanks,
Marky

Lara Croft is a gold digger who never puts out.

I can't wait for another hitman sequel either. The series has come a long way and I really liked Blood Money, lets hope it still has more improvements and new content to come.
