An upcoming sequel to Hotline Miami will take the series into the early 1990s, and will mark a definitive end of the series, Dennaton Games' Jonatan Söderström tells Joystiq. Apparently the two-person development team intended to be onto a different project with a new IP by now, but just couldn't quit their throwback franchise just yet. Beyond the changed time setting, they say of the sequel: "The gameplay will stray in a few different directions, with parallel plots built around the first game, and more attention on emotional experiences."
