Beyond Good & Evil 2 was in the works for PS3, X360, Wii U – rumour

By Brenna Hillier

Beyond Good & Evil 2 was in active development at Ubisoft Montpellier from 2007 to 2011, a staffer’s CV suggests.

According to the LinkedIn profile of an Ubisoft level designer, the project was slated for release on PlayStation 3, Wii U and Xbox 360.

It’s not clear if the 2011 end-date refers to the project going on hold, or if the staffer moved on to other tasks.

A sequel to the classic Michael Ancel action-adventure has popped up numerous times over the years, but has never made it as far as a full reveal. It’s now expected to arrive on next-generation hardware, which suggests the development period listed on the staffer’s CV was for an older attempt.

Ubisoft has said the game will be done when it’s done. Ubisoft Montpellier has turned its attention to Rayman, another Ancel creation, as well as ZombiU.

Thanks, GoNintendo.
