Knack 2 looks more of the same. Not sure there's much appetite for a sequel actually. Just because game with low reviews is profitable doesn't mean a sequel will be. I think Knack 2 is a risky move. But perhaps as they seem to be using pretty much the same assets to make the game, they are only spending a few $million and the game will make a profit with fairly modest sales.
