This article is a work in progress. ...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes.

To do: There are unused models and sounds. Document everything from the game's art book.

Alice: Madness Returns continues the story of the previous game, chronicling what happens when Alice goes mad once, and has the madness return.

American McGee had convinced Alice as a trilogy, but the chances of that happening seems to have all but died after EA shot down a proposal for a third game in 2023, causing McGee to retire from game development.
