Just because Beyond Good & Evil 2 isn't coming out anytime soon doesn't mean developer Ubisoft has forgotten about it.
YES Beyond Good & Evil 2 is still coming! According to Ubisoft
Over on the official X/Twitter page for Beyond Good & Evil, the developers thanked fans of the game for the warm reception they received last week following the reveal of Beyond Good & Evil – 20th Anniversary Edition. The thread later continued with more details on what players could expect, including pricing, exact release dates, and voice actor info. And smack in the middle of that thread was a small update about the next episode that was always in development.
Yes, Beyond Good & Evil 2 is still in development and we can't wait for you to discover more about Jade's past in the 20th Anniversary Edition! ☀️
The original Beyond Good & Evil followed journalist Jade as she battles both alien invaders and a group of mercenaries who may be conspiring with them. Beyond Good & Evil 2 is supposed to be a prequel to the events of the first game, meaning that Jade's past and more will be explored in more detail. The 20th Anniversary Edition will include a new Treasure Hunt mode that promises to explore Jade's past as well, so perhaps this can tide fans over until a release date for the next game is finally revealed.
