It’s unlikely we’ll see a follow-up to Kid Icarus: Uprising, director and writer Masahiro Sakurai has said.
Sakurai made the comments in the latest episode of Game Concepts, a series on his YouTube channel in which he discusses the development of various games.
Uprising released in 2012 for the 3DS and is the third game in the Kid Icarus series, released 21 years after the previous title Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters. A future release in the series, whether in the form of a sequel or re-release, “seems difficult”, Sakurai has said.
