Ubisoft has reconfirmed today that the long-awaited Beyond Good & Evil 2 is currently in development. The game had been teased numerous times lately by producer Michel Ancel but now Ubisoft has officially confirmed that the game is still being worked on. However, from the sounds of it it is still in the early stages of development.
“If you’ve been waiting for news about BG&E … Well here you go! We are delighted to confirm that Michel Ancel is currently working with the Ubisoft Montpellier studio on a new Beyond Good & Evil game.”
“It’s difficult to say,” Guillemot said. “Michel is working on it, but he’s doing two games at the same time–he’s doing Wild at the same time. It’s coming along, but he has to spend more time on it, so we can see it faster.”
Thanks to Kantenstain for the tip.

That was a quote that was said at E3, BTW.
My first thanks! Feels awesome… awesome…. AWWWEE–

Could not have done it without your guidance, Commander!
When on earth is the next Assassin’s Creed game coming out? I heard that they’re taking more time on the next one, but I’m going nuts waiting. I’m even tempted to replay Syndicate just to ease my anticipation. It’s my # 1 favorite series of all time at the moment. Even though I’ll NEVER be a fan of the boring Abstergo/Animus parts of the game.
(if the rumor is true) ubisoft is giving us more info about the nx than nintendo
The first Beyond Good & Evil is going to be free October 12th on Uplay (PC). So make sure you claim it if you don’t already have the game!
I’ll believe it when I see actual gameplay! I no longer trust the words of any game developer, FFXV was being developed as FF Verse 13, and they actually had real gameplay of it back then, but look what happened to that, and the only reason SE even began to work on it again and rebranded it as FFXV was because SE was struggling due to the FF franchise’s spiral into being a terrible franchise after FFX2 and FF13. Until I see actual gameplay, AND NOT JUST SOME CONCEPT ART, this game is a fake rumor!
“It’s difficult to say,” Guillemot said. “Michel is working on it, but he’s doing two games at the same time–he’s doing Wild at the same time. It’s coming along, but he has to spend more time on it, so we can see it faster.” This sounds familiar somehow. You are saying him working on two games at the same time will make them both come out faster? Funny. Then why did Final Fantasy Versus XIII take so long in development (around 10 fucking years) to the point the name was changed to Final Fantasy XV? I wouldn’t say the game came out faster because Tetsuya was also working on a bunch of other games the past 10 years while working on FFXV.
In other words, don’t expect this to hit the NX or PS4, guys! It’ll release to the NXX & PS5 after those consoles have been out for 2-3 years. KH3 might suffer the same fate since I hear Tetsuya is working on it & Final Fantasy VII Remake. Yeah. These games are going to take 10 years to release. :/
