A sequel to the Wii U eShop game Kung Fu Rabbit could happen. Neko Entertainment recently confirmed that the studio would be open to another title in the series if the game sells well.
Neko said:
“Regarding Kung Fu Rabbit and a possible sequel, it is not something depending on us from now. If we sell thousand and thousand of Kung Fu Rabbit version, of course we could work on a sequel : it would be a proof, players enjoyed the game and would like to play more. We can just cross our fingers.”
