If they were going to do a new Mercenaries game, they'd probably not saddle it with 3 in the title. Similar to how it's not Mirror's Edge 2 or Star Wars Battlefront 3. When they bring bad franchises that have been gone a while they reboot them, not make sequels.



Furthermore, a lot of the stuff that made that series unique has been adopted into a ton of other stuff so I don't know if I see it happening in general.
