Yes, in the final cutscene after the credits. Makes me sad to watch it.

In fact, in terms of story there's a whole lot that could still be told. Jen and Lewis' ancestry, for one. Lady Arella may have her general back, but still doesn't have an army. Solum and Aquis aren't in the best of shape, either.

Back when the game came out the Usenet newsgroups were still active. One of the programmers posted that they'd even started working on some ideas for a sequel. Then they got the license for '''24''' and focused on making '''24: The Game''' (2006). All I know about that is that was Andreas Katsulas final performance. R.I.P. that same year.

Paul Donovan, senior programmer at SCEE Cambridge, posted in a Usenet Newsgroup ([http://groups.google.com/group/uk.games.video.playstation/msg/a20ceb591013713d?hl=en&dmode=source located here]), that they had started working on some ideas for a sequel to ''Primal''. Donovan commented that they had completed some prototypes of some new gameplay features. The developers then received the license to make a videogame adaptation of the television show, ''24'', this in turn ceased the development of Primal 2, and all focus was diverted to ''24: The Game'' (2006).
Here's the developer:

Sorry, afraid not. We were playing around with ideas for a '''Primal 2''' and
did some prototypes of some new features but then we got the '''24''' license
so we did that instead :-)
