Ninja Theory: No Sequel Planned For Enslaved
In a recent interview, Ninja Theory head Tameem Antonaides revealed that the company is not currently planning for a sequel to its upcoming Namco-Bandai published action epic Enslaved: Odyssey to the West.
"For this game this is the one story, we focus everything on that one story and pretend there won't be a sequel," Atonaides revealed. "So no, we don't have a big arc."
He went on to explain that -- while nothing is being ruled out -- the studio's intention is to do its best to put every "cool idea and concept" it has into Enslaved.
"We did Kung-Fu Chaos and there was no sequel for that. Heavenly Sword, there was no sequel for that," commented Antonaides. "So we're now in the mindset that there's not going to be a sequel for this unless it's miraculously successful. Well not miraculously, but we don't assume it's going to be successful."
We wonder how Namco-Bandai, which clearly seems to be positioning the game as a triple-A action hit, feels about this?
