There have been lingering hopes that Enslaved: Journey to the West would produce a sequel, despite its lackluster commercial reception. However Ninja Theory co-founder Tameem Antoniades has confirmed that any plans for a sequel to Enslaved have been shelved.

Enslaved should have done better,” said Antoniades. “Right now we should have been doing a sequel and perfecting that sequel and doing what franchises do, which is get better over time. [But] because that didn’t happen we’ve not expanded to two teams like we intended to. So we’ve remained a smaller shop. But now we get another chance with DMC.”
