IGN is sadly reporting this morning that Emile Morel, who was the creative director behind Beyond Good and Evil 2, has suddenly passed away at the age of 40. Mr. Morel has been working at Ubisoft since 2009 and was extremely proud with what he and the team had accomplished with Beyond Good and Evil 2. The tragic news was shared from Mr. Morel’s Linked In page with colleagues leaving their heartfelt respects on his page. It is not apparent what will happen with the Beyond Good & Evil 2 project, but we will keep you updated if we hear anything. Our thoughts are with Mr. Morel’s family and friends.
“A cherished colleague for over a decade at Ubisoft Montpellier, we laughed and wept through good times and bad, and shipped a lot great games together. Emile was so very proud of Beyond Good and Evil 2, the Space Monkeys and his teammates. He will be sorely missed.”
Morel’s former colleague M. Gabrielle Shrager wrote on LinkedIn.

It’s so wrong, unfair and such a young age to pass away. My sympathies to his family and friends. Rest in peace Emile Morel. 🕊️
Rest in peace, so young! (removed)
Say you’re crazy without saying you’re crazy..
Rest in peace, Emile.
On another note, I find it very inappropriate to even speculate on his cause of death. None of us know what it is, and it is up to his family if they want to disclose it. Although it seems many people have already decided without even knowing him, it could have been anything from a hereditary disease to a suicide. Please stop speculating.
He died from the vax, this death was not common 2 years ago

He pass on so soon. I understand the family or friends don’t want to reveal his cause of death to the public.
Im guessing he died of the thing you are not allowed to say aloud.
