Q-Games has retooled, tweaked and enhanced nearly every game in the PixelJunk series thus far. However, PixelJunk Shooter 2 is the first true sequel in the franchise. Considering the vast amount of new features thrown into the upcoming PSN game, Cuthbert argues that it merits a numeric bump in the title. (We'd agree!) But would he consider making a true sequel to one of the earlier PixelJunk games?
The answer appears to be yes. "We want to make a PixelJunk Monsters 2," Cuthbert said during a Tokyo Game Show meeting. However, even if the team began working on a Monsters 2, it would likely be a long time coming. Cuthbert said a sequel could be part of Q-Games' envisioned "Series 2, so it will be 3D in some way." (Series 2 would be a second set of PixelJunk games designed with 3D graphics, as opposed to the studio's current set of games, "Series 1," which are all 2D games.)

Oh that brings back memories of late night Monsters sessions, playing co-op with a friend for hours and constantly yelling "DANCE, DANCE ON THAT ONE" at one another...

Wait, is "Pixeljunk Racers (2nd Lap)" considered a sequel?
Anyways, I'm all for it. It's my favorite in the PixelJunk series.

It's most likely an expansion. They did the same thing with Eden if I remember right.

If this happened... I would be so happy. I loved the first, and a sequel with 3d graphics would be all the more awesome.

If you(like me) thought Eden was trippy as it is then Eden in 3D... Wow. That would be maaaaaad.

I probably spent 40 hrs playing this game with my wife... I really hate the game single player, but it's fantastic co-op. Too bad all the trophies were for single player :( I also wish it would get the PSP version's extra content...

3D Eden. That game would be mad expensive. ($10 download + $1000 3DTV setup) but i would do it for 3D Eden.

Like 3D 3D or 2D 3D ?

Yes Please!
Although, honestly, I would be fine with another expansion or a PJ: Monsters Encore Encore. I just wasn't at all ready to be done with it, even having played pretty much every map multiple times (never quite could get the rainbow on a few of them).

The awesome 2D graphics are one of the things I love pixeljunk for, I don't want them to change! Oh well, they will probably pull it off well.
