It's been nearly a year since talk of a sequel to Monolith's FPS F.E.A.R., but today it's been reaffirmed that a follow-up to the horror-shooter is planned.

In a press release from Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment announcing that Monolith CEO Samantha Ryan has also now assumed the role of Senior Vice President, Development & Production at WBIE, it's mentioned that the company's "current production slate" includes "the sequel to F.E.A.R."

Developer Monolith is owned by Warner Bros.

that the follow-up will appear on PC and console and be tailored to each platform's particular strengths. It's expected that the sequel will go under a new as-yet-unannounced name too as the F.E.A.R. franchise is owned by Vivendi Games.
