The sequel is said to have been in development between 2008 and 2010. Around 50-70 people worked on Bully 2, which was a bigger team than the first game. The Bully 2 map wouldn't have been as large as GTA IV's (due in part to there being no vehicles), but it was projected to be about three times the size of the first Bully's map. Every building in the game could be entered. Bully 2 was also going to feature a gameplay system that would have the game remember what your character, Jimmy, did, and then respond to that. About six to eight hours of Bully 2 was playable, however the developers were shifted to other projects.
