[[File:Jim msg.PNG|Various bits of sequel information stated by Jim.|thumb|274x274px]] The '''Happy Wheels Sequel''', commonly referred to as '''Happy Wheels 2''', is the sequel to Happy Wheels that is currently in production. [[Jim Bonacci]] has stated that, unlike the original game, the player will be required to download the game. He has also stated it will cost around $5 - $10 to create levels, although nothing has been confirmed. Rather than Flash, the game is being programmed in C++ and uses OpenGL for rendering. Like the original, it will be presented in a cartoon-like style.

The game will be presented in 2.5D (3D on a side-scrolling perspective). Jim also released some early information on the game on the Happy Wheels Discord server. The game is set to be released some time in the year 2020 or 2021. This game will be free to play and will work on both Windows and Mac operating systems.
