"New Game Possibly Coming to Evil Genius Series"

Jason Kingsley, the CEO of Rebellion, has expressed a deep affection for the Evil Genius franchise, hinting at the potential for a third installment. While no official announcements have been made regarding Evil Genius 3, Kingsley is actively considering how to elevate the series to new heights. The concept of world domination, central to the franchise, is being explored beyond the traditional base-building simulator genre, with the team brainstorming innovative strategic formats for future projects.

Evil Genius 2, which hit the market in 2021, garnered "mostly positive" reviews from critics on Metacritic. However, the reception among regular players was less enthusiastic. Despite enhancements in graphics and efforts to address previous shortcomings, the sequel did not meet the expectations set by its predecessor. Players voiced their dissatisfaction with elements such as the global map, the handling of minions, and the overall degradation of various in-game structures. Kingsley and his team are taking these critiques into account as they ponder the next steps for the beloved series.
