Mirror’s Edge 2 listing appears

A product page for Mirror’s Edge 2 has appeared the German arm of Amazon, showing the game for Xbox 360, and presumably Playstation 3.

The page has since been pulled down, but not before some quick internet users could screen capture it.

The listing also shows the price at EUR99.99, but that could simply be a place-holder.

EA did respond, saying that they “appreciate fan enthusiasm for Mirror’s Edge, especially fans throughout the retail channel. This is not official EA material.” EA also said: “We have nothing to announce at this time.”

News and rumours about Mirror’s Edge 2 have been leaping around the industry rooftops for quite some time.

Ngmoco’s Ben Cousins, who formerly worked at Electronic Arts as a general manager of EA Easy, previously tweeted that a sequel to DICE’s 2008 first-person platformer is in fact already in the works.

“It is general knowledge in the Stockholm dev scene that Mirror’s Edge 2 is in production at DICE,” said Cousins in a tweet.

Cousins was responding to an article from OXM, in which EA Games VP Patrick Soderlund said that DICE doesn’t want to become a “Battlefield factory”.

Another hint came from an ex-EA software engineer, who claimed to have worked on “the wandering of crowd system within Unreal3 engine” on Mirror’s Edge 2 in 2009; while another former employee said that he implemented “new gadgets and interactive features”, “leader-boards” and a “mini-game” for the yet-to-be-announced free-running sequel.
