The prequel game to 2003’s Beyond Good and Evil, Beyond Good and Evil 2 has been in development for over a decade.<\/p>\n
A recent report from Exputer has reaffirmed that while the game is years away, it is still being developed.<\/p>\n
Beyond Good and Evil 2 was first teased by Ubisoft in 2008 and has been stated to be an action-adventure game.<\/p>\n
However, after more than ten years of development, fans only a cinematic trailer, early gameplay footage, and general statements indicating the game is still being developed.<\/p>\n
This led many to wonder if the game would ever actually release and what sort of state it would be in if it did.<\/p>\n
These concerns were further justified when in 2020, the game’s director, Michael Ancel, left the project.<\/p>\n
Ancel did state the game was “going super well”, but since his departure two years ago, there have been no new official updates on its status.<\/p>\n
However, according to the report, Beyond Good and Evil 2 has begun external playtesting as of last month.<\/p>\n
Along with this, gameplay footage was also leaked from the playtesting.<\/p>\n
While encouraging that game is still being worked on, the leaked footage showed that Beyond Good and Evil 2 is far from complete and could require many more years of development.<\/p>\n
While not entirely good news it is encouraging to know the game has not been shelved entirely and there is still hope for an eventual release.<\/p>\n
