Category:Unofficial sequels
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A spiritual sequel or spiritual successor is a sequel or successor to a computer or video game, movie, or even a stage play. It consists of the same genre, themes, or high-concept, and is often created by the same producer, director, or writer. Since creative teams often change employers but do not retain the rights to their intellectual property, they will often create a new product that is a sequel to their previous works in all ways except for being set in the exact same universe. It is not an official sequel, but it is the sequel "in spirit." However, they can have innovative characteristics over the predecessor.
