I actually liked The Surge, but I'm not really sure how a sequel could be done unless they just retcon the first game. The game ended with [sp]Warren getting shocked into jerky by Utopia launching, frying his exoskeleton. The entirety of CREO is non-functional because the nanites have initiated a full takeover with the launch, so he can't just get a new rig installed. The world is either slowly going to get fucked up by Utopia or insta-fucked depending on whether you corrupted the payload data or not.[/sp]
Knowing that, unless they get a new character who magically survives or having it so Surge 1 didn't happen I don't know where they can go.

[sp] It's slightly different depending on the ending you get. If you don't tamper with the payload the nanites are poised to fuck the world up, but if you [I]do[/I] tamper with it the ending instead gives you a conversation where the launches continue but with an inert payload and the government can't contact anyone at the launch sites, so a team is sent in to the Creo compound and gets ambushed by the rogue process. [/sp]
I imagine a sequel would take the [sp] tampered payload [/sp] ending to be canon, especially since the game kind of pushes you in the direction of doing it. A new character is probably most likely.

Whoops just realised I misread and you had in fact mentioned the seperate endings. Still though, I imagine the """"good"""" ending is the canon one since it leaves the most wriggle room for a sequel.
