EA never confirmed it was canned.

They also said that:

"Mirror's Edge is an IP that's close to my heart and EA's as well. It was a bold move from us. I'm proud we made it. It obviously didn't reach the commercial success we wanted, even though it wasn't bad at all," he said.

"I still think as a company we're going to talk about it when we're going to talk about it. What I can say is, we haven't buried it. We're absolutely continuing to support Mirror's Edge as an IP. When we're ready to talk about it, we'll talk about it."

 

There's still hope!!

Mirror's Edge 2 is my most requested sequel this gen so I'd be devastated if it was confirmed.

Since everyone else is ignoring this, do you have a link for this?  I thought I remember reading those statements prior to this new news.

They should make the sequel a Kinect game.  I'm already thinking of some ways to handle controls (though simplified).  It would give it a unique enough take that would make more people interested, as Kinect needs more core gaming.  But, then again, reports of motion sickness would probably quadruple, lol.



Such a bad decision in my opinion i know so many people who are going to to be deeply upset by this. (PS if anyone from EA reads this I am deeply dissapointed with you guys, you are completely selfish!)



Wait... does this mean im not human?

Not quite.  This game has definitely been cancelled.  What the quote you have says is that they might still try again later.  A fine distinction, but one that means at least a delay of two years.

Dammit! I wanted to see another Mirror's Edge game with improved combat and a longer campaign. According to VGChartz the original sold 1.10 million on XBox 360 and 0.95 million on PS3, those aren't bad sales at all.

They are when a ton of the copies were sold for about $10.  You could get it for $20 just two weeks after release.  I think a sequel could have done better, but I don't know how much DICE were spending on it.



god damn it!!!! I liked the original, all they had to do was fix the flaws it would have been great. now where probably going to get some other FPSs cause lord knows we dont have enough of those
