New Game in Evil Genius Series Rumored

Jason Kingsley, the CEO of Rebellion, has not ruled out the possibility of developing Evil Genius 3, though he refrains from making any official announcements at this stage. The franchise evidently holds a special place in his heart, and he is currently mulling over how to elevate it to new heights. Kingsley highlighted that the theme of world domination, central to the series, could be explored not just through base-building simulations but also via other strategic game formats. While specific projects remain in the conceptual stage, the team at Rebellion is actively brainstorming fresh ideas to shape the future of this beloved franchise.

Released in 2021, Evil Genius 2 garnered "mostly positive" reviews from critics on Metacritic. However, the reception among regular players was less enthusiastic. Despite boasting enhanced graphics and efforts to rectify previous errors, the sequel did not meet the expectations set by its predecessor. Players voiced numerous criticisms, particularly focusing on the global map, the deterioration of minions and various structures, and other gameplay elements that many felt did not live up to the standards of the original Evil Genius.
