Memes aside Knack was awful. The sequel was just ok. I can see this as a VR title tho.

Might just be renewing the trademark to keep ownership of it. These sort of things don't always lead to annoucenemnts.

You may think it's bad but I think both games are nice and underrated. It's not a platformer that people were expecting
