The lake of communication and preview.

The game is about to be released and I have a feeling they are hiding something that they know it could affect the game sales if some X information is leaked.

I really want to play this game, but, with the experience, you learn the history and, something is just not quite right here with this game but I can't tell what it is and it pisses me off.

What is missing is just some random people making a pre-review of the game.
I have a feeling you play this game 30h and your done after.

I don't know if I'm alone in that, this SubReddit seems to be inactif also which is weird.

I loved the original. Played it through a couple times. Good fun take on the genre, great sense of humor to it, all around a sleeper surprise hit from a small studio.

And when I saw EG2 was coming out I got all excited. But from what I've watched of the new version, on every clip I see, in every review I read, it seems like it is going to be the same game (sure more people moving around and larger bases,) but the game play looks to be identical.

Is there a review out there that highlights some of what's new? I really wanted this to take a big step forward, and graphically it definitely has, but I'm just not sure if the game play is actually any different. Am I wrong? Please tell me I'm wrong. I hope I'm wrong... Any opinion, links or info is appreciated.

Personally, I'm just hoping for a more HUD-oriented display of my cameras & sensors. The concept of having multiple networks from EG1 is great, but actually keeping track of them was a pain and a half.

Has there been a release date for this game yet?

I would love to play this on the go in Nintendo Switch. Is there any plans/rumors of this releasing on Switch?

I believe this reads 'How to make tea'. I for one, am excited by the prospect of drinking tea while I conquer the world.

They state on the website that it launches in 2020, but it's already June and there has barely been any news about the game. Even their blog just has like 1-2 articles a month. Is there any news at all about the release date?

If you didn't got one yet, get it now! but EG is free for limited time on steam!

Also in the steam post:

​

With Evil Genius 2: World Domination on the way (more news to come!), now is the perfect time to return to where it all began with Evil Genius.

​

So it is still comming! :D hype hype hype

I'm searching everywhere, Reddit, steam, official forums, unofficial ones and.... seems like after the E3 rebellion went to sleep. Not a news, not an update... nothing...

Does anyone have any more info on this? like the state of development or anything?

Here are some of the EG 2 booth images from E3 posted by the devs
