Ubisoft Confirms Beyond Good & Evil 2, I Am Alive Still In Development

I have good news for you, readers.

There have been excited headlines today about Beyond Good & Evil 2 and I Am Alive still in development, based on a brief response from a Ubisoft France executive at Gamekult. The excitement's based on a translation, however, which can easily be misinterpreted. With something like the sequel to Beyond Good & Evil, a project Ubisoft's been very quiet about, you want to be sure.

Luckily, Ubisoft has confirmed to me the news is accurate.

"Yes, Beyond Good & Evil 2 and I Am Alive are both still in development," said a Ubisoft representative in a brief statement, "but there’s no additional info to provide at this time."

That's all most people needed to hear, though: Beyond Good & Evil 2 isn't cancelled. Rest easy and wonder what designer Michel Ancel is currently cooking up for Jade's second adventure. I am.

I just bought the first game yesterday, finished it today. I bet I'm not the only person who never knew about this game until recently but love it! Please if the internet gods are listening grant our wish, bring this world to life! Advertise this game and get us back along side Jade and Uncle Pay'j.

Finally...a little more news about BG&E2. It makes me wonder how far along in development Ubi is with it, and how long they are going to make us long-time fans wait.

I'd buy Beyond Good and Evil twice if I could, if it were on Xbox Live. Let's hope they put it there. Microsoft, if you're listening, you might want to be taking notes.

Is Beyond Good and Evil on Xbox Marketplace? I would buy it right now if it was, but I don't think so. How about to promote BG&E2 they should release BG&E for download!

I am glad to hear that Beyond Good and Evil 2 is still in development. The original BG&E was one of the best games I ever played on the old Xbox.

Can't wait for E3 when they reveal that it is coming this year for all major consoles and PC and how the YouTube clip was actually viral marketing . . . at least, that is what I hope.

The question is, will it be console only or will they make a pc version. A lot of players of the first game were PC gamers.. (and still are).

Well it's about time. I have been waiting for a sequel for Beyond...for years! I'm glad to see I Am Alive is still around. I was wondering what happened to that game ever since I saw the first trailer.

Great news but the other half of me is thinking...well, Duke Nukem: Forever is also "still in development..."
