Beyond Good and Evil 2

Thought there was already a thread on this and cant believe there isnt but what little I have seen and what little we know its still looking stunning. I didnt play the original and it passed me by but im intrigued by the prequel for sure...

Beyond Good & Evil 2 - Everything you need to know about this open-world prequel to the cult classic​

Well, I definitely have questions, specially why is Jade the villinius one when the end of the first game said what it said. More than anything I'm mad that they still haven't announced a release. Last Guardian and FFXV are out in the world. This is the last of the 10+ year projects that just wouldn't materialize that I was eager to see and play.

I didnt play the original but with this being a prequel its likely to fill in some relationships and how they got to that point in that. I would say its a long way from release still but im fine with that, these huge ambitious titles need time & by time they release my kids will be older so I will have more time to actually play them. :laugh:

Beyond Good & Evil 2 aiming for Beta by end of 2019

Given that Ubisoft's betas tend to take place months in advance of release, that almost certainly places a release date, at the very earliest, at some point in 2020.​

Sony and Microsoft have mentioned that they are both already gearing up their next gen hardware -- I have concerns that we may not see it til' next gen :/

I guess we will have to wait and see, could go either way but rumours are that next consoles will launch 2020.

Indeed. Next gen would make sense, seeing how it looks amazing - but really ambitious. But, it could really suprise us.

Why Jade bad?

A few people have said that, having not played the original (though I do own it) I couldnt tell you any of the back story or motivations etc but its a prequel so im guessing we will find out what the deal is with that.

I’ve only played some of the first one, myself. Oh, didn’t know this was a prequel. Might have to replay the first one and get a better understanding before picking up BG&E 2.

I just want to say, that it won't help ^^ There is no indication in first game why she appears to be evil, though she do has direct connection to the main villain in first game. So maybe it's some sort of brainswash. Though I'm beginning to doubt it's prequel tbh.

Ah, well thanks for the heads up.

Maybe I’ll still replay it for the sake of immersing myself in the style and feel of the game, if BG&E 2 will be similar in that respect.

I doubt the first BG&E will reference BG&E2. This is one of those "make **** up as you go along" prequels.

There'll be some easter eggs, but that's about it.
