It seems like every few months, someone from DICE or EA will casually mention the possibility of Mirror’s Edge 2 , but they always go no further than that. Well, here they go again.
In a statement to Spong, DICE producer Patrick Liu opined that the market appears to be ready for a sequel. “Yeah, definitely. I think it’s something that people are ready to get into again,” he said.
“We see that there’s a huge fan following, it’s almost like a cult! And we know what strengths we had, and what weaknesses we had in that game. If we were to release a new game, we’d know what to improve and how to reach a broader audience. So I definitely think there’s a market there.”
It conveniently stops short of confirming that Mirror’s Edge 2 is in the works, but it’s the best Mirror’s Edge fans have for now, at least until EA and DICE get around to announcing it.
Rumors about the development of a Mirror’s Edge sequel have been passed around the internet since last year. There was talk at one point that a sequel was in development, but EA put an indefinite hold on it – and, more recently, there was talk that Mirror’s Edge 2 was in development again, and it would be running on the Frostbite 2 engine.
