Remember Mirror's Edge? In case you don't, the long and short of it is that Mirror's Edge was a first person parkour game that EA said would get a trilogy, but then critics said "Meh" and so EA killed the sequel. Then they said there would be a sequel. And then they killed the project again. EA was being pretty cagey and indecisive, and is now continuing to do so, saying that a Frostbite 2-powered Mirror's Edge 2 is a possibility.
"We haven't killed Mirror's Edge," said Frank Gibeau (EA President) to Geoff Keighley (GameTrailers TV host) in the video below.
"We're actively looking at how to bring it back in the right way. We love that franchise, the DICE guys really created something special the first time around. You've got to have a big idea to be able to do the next one, and that's what we're working on."
Then there's the part about Frostbite 2:
"Mirror's Edge, Frostbite 2 - I'm there," said Keighley.
"You'll see that combination, I'm sure," Gibeau replied.
So, Mirror's Edge 2 is alive, again. As always, I'm excited by the possibility of a new Mirror's Edge; I love that game. However, I'm taking the news with a grain of salt this time, since EA has been so indecisive about the series for the past few months. If more news should come up about Mirror's Edge 2, we'll be sure to post it.
