Beyond Good & Evil 2 is still alive and progressing well, but it is still “too early” to give dates
And we don’t mean specific dates – year, month, and launch day – but something as simple as a launch window or a target fiscal year. At Ubisoft’s last meeting with shareholders, shared by IGN, one of those present asked the French company if the mention of the game in its tax report implies that “we may see the game look over the horizon, perhaps for the year fiscal 2024 “, referring to the period from April 2023 to March 2024. Well, Ubisoft’s answer was very simple.
We have progressed well with Beyond Good & Evil 2Frederick duguet“Nice try Ken,” CFO Frederick Duguet responded to this shareholder. “We’ve made good progress with Beyond Good & Evil 2, but it’s still too early to tell at this point.” That is, Ubisoft does not dare to give a launch window for the game for now, even as far as this one. Could it be because the project has no end in sight? Or because of the uncertainty surrounding an industry still affected by the pandemic ?
Last year, Ubisoft promised that we would see BGE2 in action in 2021 , although the game has not made an appearance for now. It is possible that the company’s plans have changed, or that they have a Ubisoft Forward prepared for the second half of the year where we do see this game. The fact is that Beyond Good & Evil 2 still does not show its cards after the departure of Michel Ancel , and it seems that we will have to wait even longer to prove it.
