Human translation:
Scoop! Sources close to Ubisoft Montpellier (yes, we are from Montpellier) have revealed that Michel Ancel quit the Beyond Good & Evil 2 boat and left to found another studio (whose name hasn't been told to us) with one of his star developers (again, no names given).
Also, according to the same source, that change is due to internal problems with Ubisoft during the (already quite advanced) development of Beyong Good & Evil 2. Ancel is said to have expressed a wish to come back to more classical games (2D style).
Logic dictates that the creative process behind BGE 2 is again paused, there is even talk of a straight cancellation of the project. It remains to wait for an official announcement from either parties. Know however that this news is not a rumor and should be confirmed in the coming weeks (at E3 for example). Finally, Michel Ancel shouldn't be leaving Ubisoft's protective wing* and we do not know in what conditions the "deal" took place.

*lit: Ubisoft's lap but using lap loses the meaning in translation.
I loved the first one and if the second one does come out then I hope that it will be as good.
Alsom if Michel Ancel goes back to doing some 2D games then I will be looking forward to his future games.
