IV don't do sequels (with the possible exception of Multiwinia, which isn't really a sequel, anyway).
Until now..but for the future you can never say
Introversion have stated in the past that they have philosophical objections to sequels. Producing sequels would be a form of selling out. Thus, while I cannot predict the future, I do have some amount of evidence backing up my assertion that IV don't do sequels. So, while I cannot predict the future with 100% certainty, my position is better supported than the position of anyone who suggests that there will be a sequel to Defcon.

Yeah you are right. Well I don't want to start a posts war about sequel, but I was just thinking about Multiwinia, which is not a sequel (and we all agree about that) but maybe an evidence that the same idea is being used two times. In fact, although I am not a tester and I can only judge using official statement and screenshoots, I think it's not completely wrong thinking about Multiwinia as a Multiplayer version of Darwinia. I must admit that I didn't read previous post about this issue, so I don't know if (as probably I suppose) I am stating an idea on which people have wrote thousands of words. Therefore, I apologize in advance about this thing.
I would also point out that Multiwinia is, in some ways, what Darwinia was supposed to be. Way back in the beta days of Darwinia (about the time I joined these forums, in fact), Darwinia was going to be multiplayer. However, IV were hemorrhaging money, and needed to release something to survive. So, they stripped out the multiplayer functionality from Darwinia and finished it in its current form. Multiwinia has always, I think, been the real vision for the game.
