Now that Spider-Man is available, they don’t need the majority of the team to work on its DLC, which means they can return to one of their previous titles,
Ted Price, the CEO of Insomniac Games, told IGN Unfiltered that the team is ready to make a sequel: „I think one of the great things about starting a franchise and having the opportunity to make sequels is that you’ve, in many cases, made the hardest decisions already. When you establish an IP, you now know what the tone is, you know what the character is, you know what the core mechanics are that work. You know what players liked and didn’t like, so doing a sequel for any game, be it Sunset Overdrive or something else, is an opportunity to deliver something to fans that are significantly better than the original, and that’s something that I think we at Insomniac would love to do someday. For us, it’s a timing challenge. It’s a bandwidth challenge. but, I do, to your point, feel like there are a lot of people out there who love Sunset, and we’ve certainly been asked, frequently, by fans.”
As the team isn’t large (less than three hundred employees, which isn’t a lot by today’s standards…), we can understand Price’s thoughts. A sequel would be good indeed – the first Sunset Overdrive was stylish…
