Man, we haven't thought about American McGee and his Alice in Wonderland games for a while now. The last game from the creator was Alice: Madness Returns, but that released on PS3 all the way back in 2011. It seems McGee is ready to dive down the rabbit hole once again, as his blog has revealed he's begun work on Alice: Asylum.
Details are thin on the ground, but we do know this will be a prequel to the original game in the series. "American is hard at work on design, art, and story for the next chapter in Alice’s adventures," reads the blog. "'Alice: Asylum' will present the story before 'American McGee’s Alice,' with young Alice fighting through the trauma of losing her family."
Development is still very early; the target for release is currently set at 2021 on all major platforms. Still, fans will definitely be pleased it's happening at all. Have you been waiting for American McGee's Alice to return? Paint the roses red in the comments below.

"Asylum" is probably the most generic title for a game like this. That out of the way, I remember being quite into the first (?) one back in my pc gaming days. Good stuff with awesome art direction and unique effects and atmosphere.
Yessssss!
2021? Don't get me wrong,while id love for this to happen, the only things that will be releasing in 2021, on ps4 and xboxone are the likes of fifa,madden, nhl. This is most likely a next gen title,hope im wrong.
Madness Returns was such a weird game, but it was weird in a way that I really liked it.
Excellent. Loved the previous games. Funnily enough replayed the Madness Returns, to platinum it, a couple of months back and wondered if there'd ever be another. At that time it seemed like any future versions were most unlikely as no studios were interested; if I remember rightly. Thankfully things change.
Awesome, love this series!
I really like the first alice on pc (finished it a couple of times) since it has great story, graphics and gameplay, but I didn't like the second one. I hope the third one is more like the first game rather than the second.
I feel like his games review very meh and dont sell that great....how does the funding keep rolling in? Ive also noticed when your name is part of your game titles they usually are meh. American McGee presents: just sounds so pretentious
I got stuck on the PS3 game and never finished...just bouncing atop a bunch o’ mushrooms...trying to get from someplace over here to someplace over there. Damn those mushrooms.
I liked that madness returns game, nice to have a dark Alice game
Played Madness Returns on PC. The game was buggy and changing the controls made a boss impossible to beat because of a known bug. You had to completely reset the settings so you could use a specific move.
Apart from that, the game was quite nice
