Psychonauts Sequel Rumors Shot Down

An image on developer Double Fine's website has led to rampant speculation that the studio is working on a follow-up to the cult hit Psychonauts - but CEO Tim Schafer tells Next-Gen it's a misinterpretation.

In an e-mail to Next-Gen, Schafer rained on everybody's parade, explaining, "Man, who knew how much excitement a little darkness could bring? The truth is we are just putting together a new page about 'The Excellent Game Psychonauts.' We're not announcing any new games or anything. Sorry if we confused anybody! We lightened up the image to hopefully make things clearer."
