No Brutal Legend 2 Or Psychonauts 3 Yet - Double Fine Sticking To Original Games

Wait 5 sec.

Double Fine's next game is out in October, but beyond that, don't expect to see the studio announce Psychonauts 3 or Brutal Legend 2 in the near-future. Studio development chief Tim Schafer recently spoke about what's next for the developer after it launches its puzzle-adventure game Keeper, and he confirmed that the studio has multiple original IP in development."I'm working on other stuff," Schafer said to IGN. "The studio is doing multiple projects right now, and they're all original IPs, because we did Psychonauts 2 and that will hold us for sequels for a while."Development on Keeper is being led by Double Fine's Lee Petty, and this allowed Schafer to focus his efforts on these new projects. That doesn't mean that we'll never see a Psychonauts threequel--after all, the game between the first and second games was 16 years--or another Brutal Legend game, but for now, the developer is interested in creating brand-new games instead. Back in June, Schafer also commented on how he was developing new games instead of Psychonauts 3.While Brutal Legend 2 looks unlikely for now, the game did experience a surge in activity recently, as Double Fine gave the game away for a devilish 666 minutes to honor the passing of the Guardian of Metal, Black Sabbath's Ozzy Osbourne.Double Fine's Keeper will launch on October 17 for PC and Xbox Series X|S, and in case you missed the reveal trailer, the game revolves around a a long-forgotten lighthouse and a plucky seabird embarking on a grand adventure.
