Lately, following the cancellation of Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown’s sequel, Prince of Persia Sands of Time, and the Splinter Cell Remake, Ubisoft has seemed like a game production graveyard. However, a glimmer of hope has emerged from Ubisoft. Here are the details and the latest news from a project thought to be dead…
Ubisoft is still developing Beyond Good & Evil 2!
So, what does this unexpected revival of Beyond Good and Evil 2 mean, and what does it promise for gamers? Firstly, despite Ubisoft’s recent struggles, their persistence in keeping this project alive signals that they haven’t given up on delivering ambitious titles. In this sense, clinging to a franchise that isn’t expected to sell much could be seen as a positive move for players.
According to a report from Kotaku, citing reliable sources, the game is still in active development and recently passed a significant testing phase with success. It is said that company executives are quite pleased with the current state of the project.
The development team believes that after years of uncertainty, the game is finally moving in the right direction. Sources claim that the progress made in recent months shows that the project is now on more solid ground.
Industry experts suggest that the success of Beyond Good and Evil 2 is crucial for Ubisoft. Given the company’s stock value decline and Tencent’s potential acquisition interest, this game is seen as a potential saving grace. Particularly after the disbanding of the Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown team, it’s believed that Ubisoft has pinned all its hopes on this project.
