Yesterday, Renegade Kid confirmed that the studio is now in possession of the Dementium IP. That means the company is free to do anything and everything with the franchise.

Renegade Kid co-founder Jools Watsham has since issued a statement about the situation to Eurogamer, and told the site, “We will be exploring all possibilities, including sequels and ports, and we’re open to the idea of working with a publishing partner or going solo.”

The full comment reads:

“We’re very excited about having Dementium return home. We will be exploring all possibilities, including sequels and ports, and we’re open to the idea of working with a publishing partner or going solo. We haven’t ruled it out, but we do not currently plan to do a Dementium kickstarter campaign. It is pretty great to have these options with a brand that both our loyal fear-loving fans and us love so dearly, and so dreadfully. The team is really looking forward to lose their minds again in the blood-soaked corridors of Dementium.”

Have you ever heard of a project called Mario Takes America? Probably not, as it ended up as a cancelled title for the CD-i.

Mario Takes America would have been an action-platformer from Cigam Entertainment. Nintendo’s famous plumber would have traveled across the country, and players would find themselves in levels based on real life locations like New York.

Mario Takes America was in development between 1992 and 1994, but was cancelled due to the ambitious nature of the project and failure of the CD-i. Unseen 64 has plenty of additional information here.

Renegade Kid has regained the rights to the Dementium IP. That means, going forward, the studio can choose to make additional sequels.

Renegade Kid co-founder Jools Watsham passed along the news on Twitter a few minutes ago. He wrote:
