Calling it: HD remake of Psychonauts. Not a big fan of HD remakes mind you, but I'd be ok with this.
An HD re-release is more likely Double Fine's first order of business with the Psychonauts publishing rights. What else comes next is pure guess work for now.
Maybe Tim Schafer intends to feature an older teen or adult Raz in a game that takes place in the same continuity but isn't a sequel to Psychonauts, sort of the way that Platinum Games is going to include Jack from Mad World in Anarchy Reigns or the way that Capcom always seems to find room for another cameo appearance by anybody they see fit to have make one.

Wow. A certain gaming journalism site didn't even add the "It's not Psychonauts 2" comment.
Fucking tabloid Kotaku.

@GooferBrute: that would be my guess too. I don't know how successful the HD remake of Beyond Good & Evil was (financially speaking), but I'd have to think publishers must be looking at fondly remembered games of that era and thinking "We could do an HD remake and make some cash on it."
So, is Psychonauts 2 coming out or what?
Will gladly buy this game again in HD remake forms, especially if the money is going directly to Double Fine.

An entire Psychonauts spinoff devoted to Olieander's time in the PSI Wars?
Sounds Biowolfensteinshocky.

Hd remake would be cool, but I would much prefer if I could play Psychonauts on the go.
So, 3DS remake?

I hope you're right. I mean Sierra skipped from Leisure Suit Larry 3 to 5 because the creator said there wouldn't be a Leisure Suit Larry 4.

I played through this game a couple years ago. It really is as good as everyone makes it out to be. This definitely sounds like an HD remix, with hopefully some future plans for a true sequel in the works. If they don't think that they could just put out a full retail sequel, this would actually be a great series for episodic content. Each level in the first game is pretty much self contained, and I could easily see myself buying packs of 1-3 levels of Psychonauts.
im so happy! hope double fine makes something awesome with the rights. bc its personally my favorite platformer ever :)
I'm hoping GoofierBrute is right and its an HD remake of Psychonauts. I'm not usually for them either, but in some cases (like Beyond Good and Evil, and this one) I'm more then ok with it.
Of course, knowing Schafer, it won't be anything close to that at all.. For all we know it'll be pictures of him from another concert :)
(I kid, I loved those pics of him at the concert when they started popping up.. Its nice to see developers having fun instead of everything we hear about the business being a suicide waiting to happen)

"A testament to why I stopped using Kotaku."
At this point I'm pretty sure Kotaku uses its readers, and it stopped being the other way around a long time ago.

YES, inching closer to that sequel, It's going to happen one day
at that point I might be an 80 year-old man, but it's going to happen

This doesn't rule out that Psychonauts will ever come back in the future, but I'm hoping they HD remix the game. While I'm certainly against HD versions, Psychonauts is a damn classic that needs more attention.
