Aaron Greenberg teases "surprise unannounced game" at Developer Direct

An expansion on a game so old I forget where I played it? How about a sequel so I can figure out how to play it again with the typical intro stuff.
I guarantee you Tim Schaefer did not sell his company so he could make sequels forever. Double Fine is probably working on something cool, but it's like a new IP, like 95% of their output.

The problem mostly comes to "how many copies will it sell?"

If the original game didn't sell as much - and the software-buying population has decreased since then - how many copies would a remaster sell?

Their very old games were good and will sell a lot as remasters (Halo 1-2-3, Gears 1-2-3, Fallout New Vegas etc.) but they are so old, a simple remaster wouldn't work. They will need a thorough remake, which ups the cost and requires higher sales. Their newer games have mostly been awful, so remastering them doesn't make much sense financially.

Sony remasters games because their original sold 15-20+ million copies (Horizon, TLOU, Spider-Man, etc.). So the remaster has a chance of selling 1-2 million copies and be very profitable.

Halo 1-3 are already remastered in the Master Chief Collection.

By your own logic, a remaster of the Fallout series would sell very well, then. or even past Elder Scrolls games.

olbivion remake based on the rumors

Same rumors say that isn’t showing up.

Forza Horizon 6

There has been teases to a new FH on social media from their own accounts, they stopped adding car packs to FH5 a long while ago, they added the backstage pass to FH5 which signaled the end of the previous game, it's been out for 4 years when Forza Horizon usually takes between 2 and 3 years between games.

There's been lots of smoke about FH5 being announced for PS5 which makes ZERO sense since licenses are already old and not far off from expiring. FH6 new for Xbox and PS5, it is time to see it.

If it's not FH6 then I'd say that it's reveal still isn't very far away, possibly the summer because FH5 is wrapping it up.

Nah. Microsoft is putting every game I don't want on PS, but keeping the few I'd actually like - Forza Horizon, Ori, Lost Odyssey.

There will be little left that isn't announced to be coming on PS5 throughout this year.
Lost Odyssey is a dead IP though so it's not realistic to expect it to be revived.
