Well, then – this is a story that we never, ever expected to write: Knack may be getting a sequel. An eagle-eyed member at NeoGAF spotted reference to the unexpected follow-up on the resume of a Taiwanese animator named Mindy Liang. Apparently, she worked on cut-scenes for the unannounced PlayStation 4 title back in May 2015.

The company that she works for, Xpec Entertainment, has worked as a support studio on various games, and is contributing to Final Fantasy XV. It also made the cutesy puzzle platformer Do Not Fall for the PlayStation 3.

So, a Knack sequel is in development, then? Well, unless Liang is entirely mistaken about the projects that she's worked on – extremely unlikely – then yes, it looks like a new entry is indeed happening. Our understanding is that the original sold reasonably well, but it's been the butt of many a joke since the launch of the PS4.

To be perfectly honest with you, we're so flabbergasted that we don't really know what to say. We'll contact Sony and ask for comment, but we're not expecting a response. What a bizarre turn of events, eh?
