Double Fine Promises To Make Brütal Legend 2 But Only If Fans Give Them $100 Million
Key Points:
- Double Fine, known for Psychonauts, is crowdfunding a new game through Kickstarter, allowing backers to choose which game jam project becomes a full game.
- Among the campaign's ambitious stretch goals is a $100 million target to fund Brütal Legend 2, a sequel to the 2009 action strategy game featuring notable voice talents like Jack Black and Ozzy Osbourne.
- Brütal Legend faced a publishing rights dispute before its release but ultimately launched to critical acclaim under Double Fine's direction.
- The current Kickstarter goal is $400,000, with nearly $290,000 raised and 29 days remaining, making the initial funding target achievable, though reaching $100 million remains a highly ambitious stretch.
- Even if the $100 million goal is not met, Double Fine has several promising game projects lined up for development through this crowdfunding effort.
