Operation Backlog Completion 2024

E3 is coming soon, and one thing already confirmed is an exclusive gameplay demonstration of Psychonauts 2.

We last talked about Psychonauts 2 when the first full trailer was revealed at last year’s Game Awards show in December. I’d been worried about it, but the trailer renewed by enthusiasm.

Now an official E3 announcement has revealed that E3 2019 will include a panel with Tim Schafer and Jack Black, and they’ll show Psychonauts 2 gameplay.

It’s not clear why Jack Black will be there, but the actor previously worked with Double Fine for the game Brütal Legend. He also voiced a character in Broken Age. Some fans are hoping it means their panel will include Brütal Legend news, but it seems more likely that Jack Black is involved with Psychonauts 2, especially since Tim Schafer recently told Variety that Double Fine’s next game would probably not be a sequel to anything.

(Unless their non-sequel game is Rad, which was already announced.)

Update: This has been confirmed, as the latest Fig update for Psychonauts 2 says Jack Black will be there “to chat about his involvement in the game.”

Anyway, I’m excited for Psychonauts 2, so I can’t wait to see this panel. Here’s hoping the gameplay looks good and the writing is as funny as in the first game.

Are you looking forward to the Psychonauts 2 panel at E3?
