APRIL 2020 • TECH ADVISOR 87- Psychonauts 2
Release date: To be confirmed
All the attention’s on Baldur’s Gate III, Vampire: The
Masquerade – Bloodlines 2, Half-Life: Alyx, and other
long-awaited 2020 sequels. But Psychonauts 2 is due
to release next year as well, and I’m... well, maybe not
excited but intrigued, sure. It’s been 15 years since the
original came and went, and at least 10 since it started
being discussed as a cult classic. Mascot platformers
were dated even in 2005 though, and in 2020? It’s
tough being a Yooka-Laylee or even a Hat in Time. I’m
confident in Double Fine’s ability to surprise people,
but I do wonder if Psychonauts 2 will actually appeal to
those who waited on a sequel for so long.
