Video game publishing and development company, Ubisoft, has announced that Beyond Good and Evil 2 is still in development. The company, which recently announced the cancelation of three unannounced projects, made this announcement via a company spokesperson:

Beyond Good and Evil 2's development is underway and the team is hard at work to deliver on its ambitious promise.

No further information has been provided.

For many video game aficionados, Beyond Good and Evil is one of the best video games ever made. The title, developed and published by Ubisoft in 2003, received wide acclaim from critics who hailed its graphics, design, and story. It was also nominated for numerous awards, including Game of the Year at the 2004 Game Developers Choice Awards. However, despite its critical acclaim, it failed to perform well commercially.

Beyond Good and Evil was originally intended as a trilogy but the performance of the first title meant plans for a sequel were put on hold. In 2008, rumors emerged that Ubisoft had given a go-ahead for a sequel. However, it wasn't until 2017, at E3, that the company would confirm the rumors with an announcement trailer for the title.
