Sega has today said that they will not be pushing forward with a sequel for the recently released Alpha Protocol. According to MetaCritic, the game had some well-received reviews but ended up with an average sub-70 score overall. This disappointed the team over at Obsidian. However, Sega told CVG that they will still not be pushing for a sequel.

“Let’s speak very commercially; the game hasn’t sold what we’ve expected, therefore we won’t be doing a sequel,” said Hayes.

“The concept was brilliant, though,” he added. “You know this whole thing with MetaCritic where you have to be in the high 70s to mid-80s minimum [to have any success] – well, with RPGs you have got to be in the late 80s”.
