“Amazing” characters have “brand equity”.
Violent action duo Kane and Lynch will return despite the mixed reception to their previous outing and lay-offs at Danish developer IO Interactive.
That’s according to Eidos life president Ian Livingstone, and he should know: he sits on Square Enix’s green light committee that decides which games are made and which are scrapped.
“We haven’t made any announcements about Kane & Lynch going forward, but we all know that Kane and Lynch are two amazing characters who have a lot of brand equity,” Livingstone told Eurogamer in a new interview published today. “People like those guys, so they’re not going to disappear.”
