From what I can tell he's basically giving up on it and EA is probably not gonna bring it back because it was never a huge moneymaker and probably can't be feasibly stuffed with MTX and Live services.
The Decade-Long Effort To Make Alice: Asylum Has Reached An End
American McGee said Alice IP holder Electronic Arts has refused to fund the development or consider licensing options.www.gamespot.com
Now does this mean the game can still happen if it’s crowdfunded or find alternative funding? Because it doesn’t mention EA sending them cease and desist
Don't get me wrong, I liked both Alice games but I'm not sure how a sequel would work. Madness Returns as already retreading a lot of ground from the first game except for retconning some of the backstory(and adding some creepy icky SA implications to boot).
I'd much rather have an easily purchasable and playable American McGee's Alice which is currently very difficult to get ahold of at this point to my knowledge...unless you just raise the skull and crossbones and play around with emulation a bit.
