While Bulletstorm did pretty well in the media and many who gave the game a try really liked it, chances for a sequel are slim for the time being. While People Can Fly (who developed the first Bulletstorm) did start work on a sequel, work was apparently abandoned and the project cancelled while the studio moved on to another project, according to Epic’s Mike Capps.

While Capps says he believes that people like the idea of something new, the sales didn’t do the kinds of numbers that Epic or publisher EA would have liked; and both thought the title would have done better.
