What future for Steel Panthers?

[Wiking]

SSI does not exist anymore per se. However, you are correct that the copyright holders (Ubisoft) would have to be contacted and negotiated with; something I'm not sure they want to commit to in the near future if ever. I'm fairly certain that Ubisoft is not interested in reviving a moribund series that is not going to bring in big bucks.

Incidentally, Matrix Games has talked a little about doing something with the "other" Steel Panthers, so that seems like the only likelihood of a new game in the next couple years. But I wouldn't hold your breath. Just enjoy what Don and Andy have given us and see what way the wind blows.
