Tim Schafer, geniet bakom titlar som Day of the Tentacle, Full Throttle och såklart Grim Fandango, har delat med sig av lite önskedrömmar gällande framtiden. Uppenbarligen har han inspirerats av Grand Theft Auto V och berättar att han vill göra en uppföljare till Grim Fandango förlagt till en öppen värld:
"I've had this urge to make a fully 3D version of El Marrow, where it's more like an open world game. You're running around the city and stuff. Games like Grand Theft Auto have a lot of the elements of adventure games, and if there was just an inventory that wasn't guns, you could probably do a full adventure game in one. That's something I've thought about since the '90s."
