One thing is certain: the current Bungie staff has little in common with the group that produced Oni (there are only two Oni developers still working at Bungie – Chris Butcher and Lorraine Reyes McLees – as of December 2021). There is probably little sentimental or monetary incentive for Bungie to buy back the IP and produce a sequel.

Since Oni's release, the fan community has been working on [[wp:Video game modding|mods]] and writing gameplay and modding tools for the game. Gradually, the modding abilities of the community have extended to encompass nearly every aspect of the game. The game applications for Windows and macOS are also maintained and improved through patches. Various fan projects have taken on the subject of an "Oni 2" storyline.
