What I heard was – and I wasn’t able to confirm this - it didn’t become a full news story as I couldn’t corroborate it enough to get it out there – but I’ve been told its been abandoned. The studio has moved on, the key people from that studio that were making it have moved on to other projects outside of Ubisoft. Like I said, I might be wrong, but I have heard it’s gone.

Oh well. Never understood the fuss around the first one anyway.

I'd forgotten it had even been announced.

I would have liked a sequel but I'm not too fussed they cancelled it at this point. Maybe someday.

Who cares Dead Rising did the photographer gimmick with more emotion and maturity

Beyond Good & Evil had a good story with good characters, but it was a pretty poor game. I seem to recall it was one of those games I was determined to complete so I could slag it off with impunity. Dreadful stealth sections and the final boss was truly awful. I seem to recall I liked the the photography elements though.

So far this year, I have eaten NO mince pies.

"May have"? This gooseberry fool's dead, son.

I look forward to its revival at Sony's E3 conference in 2019 along with a remake of Resident Evil 2.

Ancel is independent now so we wouldn't have got the game he wanted. Hopefully WiLD is a success for Sony and they then fund BG&E2 with Ancel.

This makes me feel sadness

But is the rumour that it's a NX exclusive true, Jawa? Huh?

The internet would explode if that happened, Pedz! As with Bayonetta 2, there would be so much fury :lol: .

I really hope it's an NX exclusive. I'll get to play it and the fallout will be strawberry floating hilarious to watch unfold. It's a win-win.

I think the first one was a bit over hyped and people view it rose tinted goggles. I played the HD port a year or so ago on PS3 and thought it had aged very poorly.
