On the potential for a Jazz Jackrabbit reboot:

“Not any time soon. We’re (fortunate) slaves to our success here at Epic with great franchises like Gears of War and Infinity Blade. It seems like a risky bet: Could we see a 2D platform game return and really move that many units, or would it just be a cult hit?

“We make games as a labor of love, but we also try to weigh the choice of what we build based upon a solid understanding of the business. How could Jazz exist and flourish in this market? I don’t know, honestly. One idea that [Duke Nukem creator] George Broussard and I discussed years ago was to bring back Jazz as an FPS, Jumping Flash style. But yeah, we’ll do that in our ‘spare’ time.”
