A game sequel is a follow-up installment in a video game series, often building on the story, characters, and gameplay mechanics of its predecessor. Developers create sequels to expand the narrative, introduce new features, and enhance player experience. Popular examples include Super Mario Bros. 2 and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2. Sequels can vary in scope, from direct continuations of the original game to reimaginings or spin-offs. They aim to attract both returning players and new audiences, often leveraging the success of the original title to boost sales and engagement.
