The Evil Genius series may get a new game

Rebellion CEO Jason Kingsley hasn't ruled out Evil Genius 3, but there are no official announcements yet. The franchise is close to his heart, and he's carefully considering how to elevate it. Kingsley suggests the world domination theme could translate beyond the base-building simulator genre into other strategic formats. While details are still under discussion, the team is actively brainstorming the franchise's future.

Evil Genius 2, released in 2021, received mostly positive press reviews on Metacritic. However, player reception was more mixed. Despite improved graphics and attempts to address past issues, many felt the sequel fell short of the original. Common criticisms included the global map, minion and structure degradation, and various other gameplay aspects.
