A mysterious Brutal Legend image has been circling around social media networks over the past few days, leading to many fans speculating if a sequel was in the works to Double Fine’s 2009 action-adventure game.
This speculation was fueled further when a member of the Double Fine team, Lee Petty, also shared the image on Twitter, but it wasn’t long before the studio began to conduct damage control on the rumors.
Double Fine tweeted to confirm that the image was merely a “fan site posting and nothing to do with us”, and Petty himself clarified that he was just fondly sharing the artwork out of nostalgia rather than teasing any impending announcement.
