Can you believe it? If all goes right we can finally be once again tumbling through grimy back alleys of some dark city with our 2 favorite assholes swearing up a storm.

K&L is basically as close as we're gonna get to Heat the video game and I know they're not exactly amazing games and this is probably just wishful thinking because I don't think Embracer really works with external devs and I'm not sure how I'd feel about Kane&Lynch being developed but a different studio than IOI but still, there's probably a higher chance for these games to not be completely forgotten. 1 especially could use some touching up to bring it up to modern times, 2 holds up a lot better and is a stylistic masterpiece imo.

What do you guys think? Would you like to see Kane&Lynch come back?

i dont think embracer bought all those studios to bleed money lol
Both KL games had mixed at best reception, i dont see why they would bring it back instead of just doing something new.

If IO isn't making it, I don't care. Something like Hitman 2016 where it's an episodic game would be a really cool model given the main criticisms to previous games was that they were short.

Still waiting for my Hotline Miami x Kane & Lynch cross-over.

Call it... Hotline Miami Vice.

Honestly, a really cool heist game would be awesome with these 2. Haven't played them in a long time, but I remember loving these characters. I feel like there's still a lot left to discover. K&L2 is still has one of my favorite video game trailers of all time. Haven't played a game this mature since Max Payne 3.

I know this a joke thread, but honestly Dog Days was the perfect ending for Kane and Lynch, no need to do another.

The only good thing about K&L is that the product keys works like a charm for Gears of War on PC to activate live lol

I would actually love a remake of the first. Nothing too crazy, just some polishing to the gameplay. The game was rough around the edges but it was basically Heat: The Videogame. I really enjoyed it.

Another scandal involving Jeff Gerstmann?

I kid, what happened to him was fucked, even though it worked out.

Suddenly, a new Pandemonium seems like a real possibility. What would you like to see?

2nd one had the camcorder footage visual look.

So if the third was made, and with a 9:16 ratio to mimic TikTok/IG reels; I've be down for it.

Embracer could have said "we're buying these studios and IPs with the sole intention of developing a new Kane & Lynch game" and I'd still tell you this; you ain't getting another Kane & Lynch game.
