Beyond Good and Evil 2 (UK Release: TBA)

Couldn't seem to find a thread on this one but with the possible leak of some very nice looking gameplay footage I thought I'd start this.

Original Trailer
YouTube - Beyond Good & Evil 2 Teaser Trailer (HD)

Possible leaked footage (no one seems to be able to say for certain but most think it seems likely)
YouTube - Beyond Good Evil 2 footage leaked and lovely

I never played the first one but I know it was critically well received (if not commmercially) and the brief bit of gameplay footage here looks pretty sweet. Something like Assassin's Creed meets Jason Bourne in the future! The way she uses her surroundings as she runs looks awesome.

Re: Beyond Good and Evil 2 Preview Thread

I haven't played the first either, but it looks like a hybrid between Assassin's Creed and Mirror's Edge. Looks mint.

Re: Beyond Good and Evil 2 Preview Thread

The orginal was similar to the Jak series in many ways, although less action packed. There were stealth sections, you travelled in a hovercraft and used some stick to fight with, you also had to take alot of pictures. This one looks similar but with more mirrors edge/assassins creed style gameplay.

Re: Beyond Good and Evil 2 Preview Thread

I'm going to nitpick the second clip. At the end when she jumps onto the plane and the rotors twist, it looks to me like they twist the wrong way. They're initially pointing upwards, giving downdraft (so it hovers). Then they twist backwards, which should push the plane backwards, not forwards.

That was the issue with the first game though, brilliant game just seemed to disappear into obscurity
