The Destroy All Humans! franchise could be making a comeback.

This is according to a tweet by Nordic Games development director and executive producer Reinhard Pollice.

Pollice, who was responding to an eager fan on Twitter, mentioned that a number of options were currently be explored and that the team were in the process of brainstorming ideas.

The previous Destroy All Humans! games were published by the now-defunct THQ. Nordic games acquired the license (as well as several others) in 2013.

The first and second game received generally positive reviews from critics before the series took somewhat of a downturn in later releases.
