[Wii] Part two is 'absolutely' likely

GameCube classic Eternal Darkness almost certainly has a sequel on the way, according to Denis Dyack, director of developer Silicon Knights.

Dyack has revealed in hisblog that the three-game approach the team took to the forthcoming Xbox 360 game Too Human was always a possibility for Eternal Darkness. Every time the team designs a game, he says, it is intended to tell a story within a larger universe and that other stories are still there to be told.

This means that Too Human's - and now perhaps Eternal Darkness ' - story will arc over three self-contained chapters. "We want each game to be a complete experience on its own, the major plot lines will be resolved at the end of each game," said Dyack.

The prospect of an Eternal Darkness title appearing on next-gen systems is exciting indeed. Here's hoping the team finds time to squeeze it into its very busy development diary soon.
