This development might surprise some fans of the series because of the lukewarm reception of Trine 3. Even the developers admitted that their eagerness got the better of them with that game. 

Despite the odds, though, here we are.

The developers seem to have returned to the series after reevaluating their stance on the franchise. In a press release, FrozenByte CEO, Lauri Hyvärinen, had this to say:

It’s always good to see a developer acknowledge their faults when jumping into the sequel to a poorly received game. This way, they can address problems fans had with the previous game and ensure things get handled better.

Beyond these vague details, that’s all we have for now. The announcement released today with the message of ‘official announcement coming soon’ attached to it.
