The odd but cool first person action game Zeno Clash has become a cult hit for its developer ACE Team and today the company revealed that a sequel is now in development. Zeno Clash 2 will take place after the events of the first game and have the player once again in the role of Ghat. Both old and new characters will be back and ACE Team says the sequel will have a larger scope than the original. It will "feature open ended gameplay with large explorable environments and RPG elements." The melee combat will also get "even more brutal" in the sequel. No release date was revealed.

In the meantime ACE Team plans to continue to support the original Zeno Clash with updates and new content. Indeed the team released a new free update via Steam that adds "Health and Time counters in the Challenge Mode" along with support for Italian subtitles.
