I thought this was already "sort of announced" after the first came out? Especially since LostWinds seems more like the prologue to a full game.

Would buy another installment in a second. It was great fun.

Considering Frontier has confirmed this several times, I think we can safely say it's no longer a rumour Smilie One of the worst kept secrets Smilie

Awesome! I loved the first one even though it was a little bit short. They had all the artwork for the new game a while back as well.

SmilieI beat that game 3 times it's great. Although it was a bit short. I also remember hearing about a sequel being the works a while back, but I'm hoping they set a release date at E3. I wonder what element they'll focus on next, and if the lost wind will still be your companion?

It must be your companion still, seeing as the story in LostWinds was unfinished and cut off just as the main adventure was about to begin.*

I really enjoyed the first game though I found it to have no reply value as the game is boring to play through again.

Hopefully the next game is twice as long and has more variety in the types of locations and wind powers you can use.

I'd love to see a sequel, but I hope it's actually fun unlike the first.

The first was very fun, and got very good reviews all around.
If its not your sort of thing, its not your sort of thing. But just about everyone liked it.


And yeah, LostWinds2 was not only announced at the end of the first one, but since last year you could sign up to their site to be informed when its details are announced.


btw, fans of LostWinds *really* should get SoulBubbles on the DS. The gameplay is similar, yet different and more diverse.
