Rebellion CEO Jason Kingsley hasn't ruled out the possibility of Evil Genius 3, though no official announcements are planned at this stage. He holds a deep personal affection for the franchise and is currently exploring ways to elevate it further.

Kingsley suggested that the concept of world domination could extend beyond the base-building simulation genre into other strategic formats. While specific projects remain under discussion, the development team is actively brainstorming fresh concepts for the franchise's future.

Upon its 2021 release, Evil Genius 2 garnered "mostly positive" critical reviews on Metacritic. However, the sequel faced significant criticism from the broader player base. Despite visual enhancements and efforts to rectify previous issues, many felt it failed to capture the original game's magic. Players highlighted problems with the global map, the diminished utility of minions and facilities, among other shortcomings.
