Rebellion CEO Jason Kingsley hasn't ruled out Evil Genius 3, but isn't making any promises just yet. The franchise is close to his heart, and he's carefully considering how to elevate it for a future installment.
Kingsley suggests the world domination theme could translate beyond the base-building simulator genre, opening doors to other strategic gameplay formats. While specifics remain under discussion, the team is actively brainstorming new ideas to revitalize the franchise.
Evil Genius 2, released in 2021, received a "mostly positive" Metacritic score from critics. However, player reception was more mixed. Despite improved graphics and attempts to address previous criticisms, many felt the sequel fell short of the original. Common complaints included the global map, minion and structure degradation, and various other gameplay aspects.
