Jason Kingsley, the CEO of Rebellion, has not closed the door on the possibility of an Evil Genius 3, yet he refrains from making any official statements at this stage. The franchise remains close to his heart, and he is currently exploring ways to elevate it to new heights. Kingsley envisions expanding the theme of world domination beyond the traditional base-building simulator genre, venturing into other strategic formats. Although specific projects are still under discussion, the creative minds at Rebellion are buzzing with innovative ideas for the future of the series.
When Evil Genius 2 hit the market in 2021, it garnered "mostly positive" reviews from critics on Metacritic. However, the reception from the general player base was less enthusiastic. While the sequel boasted enhanced graphics and efforts to address previous shortcomings, it failed to live up to the legacy of the original game in many players' eyes. Criticisms centered around the global map, the handling of minions, and the quality of various in-game structures, highlighting areas where the game did not meet expectations.
