Has there ever been a game whose name was intentionally suffixed with "2" despite no original game? lol (lemmy.zip)

I just thought it'd be hilarious if a dev named their game, like, "Warhound 2" or something when there was never an original "Warhound" lol (and like, do so seriously, not just as a parody or joke, at least primarily so).

You might enjoy the movie Troll 2

There was Troll before it, actually. 2 isn’t really a sequel to 1 in terms of creative intent but it was titled as such for marketing purposes because the rights owners figured a movie with no plot connections that didn’t even have a troll in it was still close enough.

This is exactly what I thought of haha. Absolute classic that everyone should watch at least once.
