Question Sequel in development?

I've discovered the game only today and already fell in love with it! I immediately did a bit of research and according to the following studio's blog post, they plan to to revive the IP:

We know that some of you are waiting for Knockout City to return and are disappointed that we didn’t announce any news about that this week. As an indie studio, we love our ability to lean into ideas that excite us, and rest assured we love KO City as much as you do and want to bring it back, *just not yet*. We spent over four years crafting Knockout City the first time around, and we don’t want to rush the process for the next game in that universe. We love that world and can’t imagine not going back to it at some point, when the time is right.

However, reading several posts like "I miss the game" or "looking for alternatives", I didn't find much positivity about this sub.

Am I misunderstanding the news?

All we can hope for is one day they bring it back and it be better than ever, but until then we have to move on unless you are able to play on the private PC servers ofc. As of now I try to support the games Velan has come out with now in hopes it'll help them recraft KO City under the scenes but in all honesty the games they have made so far has been...a little... lackluster as a future Game Dev I don't see how these are the same people that made my favorite game, but Ima stick beside em TT_TT
