LucasArts announced recently plans for a sequel to their hit 1993 adventure game, Sam & Max Hit the Road. Michael Stemmie, co-director of the classic, will be directing the sequel. While no media is available yet, this information is sure to delight fans of the classic rabbit/dog adventure game they learned to love. An estimated release for Sam & Max 2 will be in the first quarter of 2004. Be assured that LucasArts will reveal more information up until its final release.

Here is what LucasArts president Simon Jeffery had to say about the recent announcement:

"Sam & Max Hit the Road is a classic and as close to being a signature game as any LucasArts has ever done," says Simon Jeffery, president of LucasArts. "The Sam & Max sequel, much like the recently announced Full Throttle® II, perfectly complements LucasArts' renowned adventure game legacy and lends further support to the company's commitment to investing in and developing more of our original properties."
