Thimbleweed Park 2 is officially happening, funded by a wealthy fan of the original game rather than a traditional publisher. Creator Ron Gilbert expressed dissatisfaction with publisher terms, opting for a more favorable deal with an anonymous benefactor. The sequel is expected in early 2028 and aims for a budget higher than the original's $1 million.
