Costume Quest is getting a sequel that will hit this year, Double Fine has announced. Costume Quest 2 will once again feature Wren and Reynold in another costume-fueled RPG that promises more refined mechanics. It's due sometime around Halloween for PC and unspecified consoles.

“I saw [a sequel] more as a demand,” Double Fine head Tim Schafer told IGN. “I don’t know that I had much choice in the matter. It is that game, you can’t slip that schedule,” Schafer explained. “It’s the kind of game you always want to revisit, there’s such a great core to it.” Schaefer also said that it's in full production and "got up and running really fast."

The original Costume Quest received a generally positive reception for its cute take on classic RPG mechanics.

      Great, will definitely play this. The first one captured the feel of trick or treating on Halloween perfectly.

      Sounds great, but I'm not buying shit from DF until they remove GFWL from Iron Brigade.

      I liked Costume Quest well enough, but I'm more interested in playing Hack n Slash. Did that get canned? Is it going to make this year if it's still alive?
