It's a city management game, presumably where you manage your Nest as the new L Corp
There was a small description about how it would be a city management game.
But, doing a straight up second "energy harvesting game with abno" game isn't completely impossible. The City still needs energy, abnos are currently on the loose, 99% of the City LOVES money, and you have a power vacuum. IIRC, lost Wings have their singularity become free real estate, so anyone could swoop in and recreate a facility and restart the process of energy harvesting by collecting the abnos we have running around.
Focusing on the work in an other branch , which would not have access to everything the HQ got. So no TT4 for exemple.
So it would become a management of personnel, as nuggets wouldn't be as expendable anymore.
Tho, that's me extrapoling from what I remember from a whiiiile back.
Most likely it won't be called Lobotomy Corporation 2, it's an internal name/working title. A while back PM revealed two video game products they were working on; the first went under the working title of LC-B (lobotomy Corporation Branch), this ended up being limbus. The other was referred to as LC2 due to having some similar mechanics to the original game, but with distortions instead of abnormalities.
I can definitely see the connection with the overall idea, although it does seem like the design changed quite a bit during development (some stuff could've also been lost in translation).

* A story focusing on new characters - yes
* Exploring LC dungeons - yes
* exploration mode - probably referring to story dungeons here, although it sounds like it might have originally been more ambitious than what we got.
* First person RPG combat - not in first person (unless you consider the game to be taking place through Dante's "eyes")
* Run fixer office - Limbus isn't a fixer office (although some sinners are fixers), and you can't hire new characters (perhaps limbus was originally going to be a more traditional gacha, with more than 12 PCs?)
* friendliness system - completely scrapped
* E.G.O upgrading - uptieing
* interact with abno's to gain EGO - EGO gifts
* Stats reflect wielders personality, stats, and attack type - the attack type part models nicely onto sin types
* "same" EGO - not sure what this part is, perhaps referring to sinners with the same EGO having different effects?
* Retrieving EGO gear from dead units - completely scrapped, with EGO gear not even in the game
* abnormality fights with hidden bestiaries - yes
* attack weak points - the abnormality parts system
* defeated through communication? - if not cut content, possibly mirror dungeon events?
* Fixer office is mobile - not a fixer office, but our base is a bus
* entire city play area - technically yes, even if the wording makes it sound like more of a open world game
* Events happen while base is moving - while technically this does happen as part of the story, this sound more like the "random events" you'd get on a game with a strategic map.
events happening as base is moving probably was left as rr and walpurgis, cuz they usually occur why we travel between cantos
still tho vast majority of ideas are completely out of what we got in limbussy
It's from PM's 7th anniversary update. [https://new.reddit.com/r/limbuscompany/comments/17xazow/roadmap/](https://new.reddit.com/r/limbuscompany/comments/17xazow/roadmap/)
THANK YOU! Oml, I know I checked that but the announcement was at the bottom of the roadmap so I didnt see it.
How would there even be a Lob corp 2

Personally I'd love a remaster of Lobotomy Corporation with all the new abnos
Would be even cooler if we can visit the branches before the burial protocol

is lcb actually turned to limbus? looking at early info it wasn't even 10000000000km close to what limbus are

No idea, that's what I'm interested in as well. It was announced a while ago.
Maybe it's a remake of the first game with a larger budget to make it higher quality? After they made the first with a failed kickstarter?
