Jason Kingsley, the CEO of Rebellion, has hinted at the potential for a third installment in the Evil Genius series, though he remains tight-lipped about any official announcements. The franchise is dear to him, and he's currently mulling over ways to elevate it further. Kingsley suggests that the concept of world domination, central to Evil Genius, could transcend the traditional base-building genre and explore other strategic game formats. While concrete plans are still under wraps, the team is buzzing with creative ideas for the franchise's future.
Evil Genius 2, launched in 2021, garnered "mostly positive" reviews from critics on Metacritic. However, when it reached the broader gaming community, the reception was less enthusiastic. Despite enhancements in graphics and efforts to address previous flaws, many players felt the sequel didn't live up to the original's standards. Criticisms focused on elements like the global map, the handling of minions, and various structural issues within the game.
