"Dreamfall Chapters" is the upcoming sequel to the critically acclaimed and award-winning adventure games "The Longest Journey" and "Dreamfall". On 1 March 2007, it was announced that unlike its predecessors, it will be released in episodic format.cite web|url=http://www.funcom.com/wsp/funcom/frontend.cgi?func=publish.show&func_id=1191&table=CONTENT&item=1004|title=Funcom awarded grant from Norwegian Film Fund|accessdate=2007-03-01|publisher=Funcom|date=2007-03-01] The game is being developed by Funcom and designed by Ragnar Tørnquist, who stated that episodic format goes perfectly with his plans for the continuation of the story.cite web|url=http://ragnartornquist.com/?p=291|title="Dreamfall Chapters"|accessdate=2007-03-01|last=Tørnquist|first=Ragnar|authorlink=Ragnar Tørnquist|publisher="RagnarTornquist.com"|date=2007-03-01|quote=The episodic format is perfect for the continuation of the story - it’s something I’ve been thinking about for ages...]

Contrary to earlier speculation that "Dreamfall Chapters" would form the basis of an MMO game, the developers have asserted that the proposed game will be distributed online, but "not as an MMO".fact|date=February 2008

Tørnquist since commented that the story of "Dreamfall Chapters" will pick up exactly where "Dreamfall" ended or even before that, to present its ending from an alternative point of view.cite web|url=http://ragnartornquist.com/?p=384|title=A storm of updates: iaw|accessdate=2007-10-02|last=Tørnquist|first=Ragnar|authorlink=Ragnar Tørnquist|publisher="RagnarTornquist.com"|date=2007-09-29|quote= ["Dreamfall Chapters"] will begin exactly where ["Dreamfall"] left off. We might even rewind a bit. Just to see things from a different perspective.] On his blog, he also dropped several hints at the future development of the story,cite web|url=http://ragnartornquist.com/?p=425|title=How happy (the little stone)|accessdate=2007-11-21|last=Tørnquist|first=Ragnar|authorlink=Ragnar Tørnquist|publisher="RagnarTornquist.com"|date=2007-11-18] cite web|url=http://ragnartornquist.com/?p=432|title=Wallpaper, tattoo, and other kick-ass questions, answered|accessdate=2007-11-26|last=Tørnquist|first=Ragnar|authorlink=Ragnar Tørnquist|publisher="RagnarTornquist.com"|date=2007-11-26] although how serious they are remains open. In June 2008, Tørnquist confirmed that Zoë Castillo and Kian Alvane will be returning in "Chapters" but refused to comment on April Ryan's situation after the ending of "Dreamfall".cite web|url=http://ragnartornquist.com/?p=461|title=Cacoethes scribendi|accessdate=2008-06-01|last=Tørnquist|first=Ragnar|authorlink=Ragnar Tørnquist|publisher="RagnarTornquist.com"|date=2008-06-01]
