Protect the Lair: Bring Personal Bodyguards Back to Evil Genius 2


Protect the Lair: Bring Personal Bodyguards Back to Evil Genius 2
The Issue
In the world of Evil Genius 2, commanding your own sinister empire should feel thrilling, cinematic, and perfectly orchestrated. Yet, one glaring omission has left longtime fans scratching their heads: the absence of personal bodyguards. These elite protectors were iconic in the original Evil Genius, offering not just brute strength, but personality, style, and a tactical edge that elevated the game’s core fantasy.
👥 What Were Personal Bodyguards? Back in the original Evil Genius, personal bodyguards weren’t just minions—they were trusted lieutenants, often seen flanking your villain in key cutscenes, patrolling the inner sanctum, and defending against elite agents. They had unique traits, memorable designs, and could be customized to reflect your villain’s persona. Their absence in Evil Genius 2 leaves a narrative and gameplay void.
🎮 Why Their Return Matters
Enhanced Immersion: Bodyguards added weight to the fantasy of being a diabolical mastermind. Seeing your character surrounded by fierce, stylish protectors was a visual and emotional reward.
Strategic Gameplay: They filled a defensive role, balancing the game’s increasing threat levels with specialized response units.
Nostalgia and Fan Service: They’re one of the most-requested features by returning players, especially those who grew up loving the original.
Visual Storytelling: In a game that thrives on aesthetics and theme, personal bodyguards complete the look. They’re the entourage your villain deserves!
📢 We’re Calling on Rebellion Developments Ltd. It’s time to honor legacy and elevate gameplay. Whether through a free update or premium DLC, we ask the developers to restore personal bodyguards to Evil Genius 2. Their inclusion will not only deepen the mechanics but satisfy a loyal fanbase that has supported this title through its evolution.
This petition reflects the voices of gamers who love cinematic villainy, strategic design, and classic gaming nostalgia. Let’s bring back the entourage—and protect the lair the way it was meant to be.
Sign, share, and help us make this evil dream come true.
