Electronic Arts has confirmed that a ‘small team’ has been assigned to carry out development of parkour-inspired adventure sequel, Mirror’s Edge 2.

Speaking with VideoGamer.com during the E3 convention in Los Angeles last week, EA Games Europe senior vice president Patrick Soderlund confirmed that a sequel to the stylish first person outing is in the works, though didn’t shy away from admitting the original game had its faults.

“Mirror’s Edge was a risky move. It was a bold move, a very innovative and inspiring move. The game wasn’t perfect by any means. We would have liked the game to sell better even though the game has sold better than most people think,” said Soderlund.

“You will see another Mirror’s Edge for sure. It’s just a matter of when that time is and what we do with it. We have a small team on it and I’m excited about what we do.”

Unfortunately that’s about all Soderlund was able to divulge on the sequel, though PSU will be sure to bring you any further details on the game as they become available to us. Stay tuned.

Hmm.. I actually don't think I ever got around to finishing the first one, but it was a pretty interesting game... though with a few flaws..

Anyways it doesn't sound like EA has too much "faith" (lol yes) in the sequal.

Good to know. Hopefully it'll be as good as the first... the first is freakin beautiful.

DICE is busy with a lot of Battlefields, so it's expected lol

well they should change the protagonist and put the girl that the fans made or something the original one is a turn off, also they game should be longer and should allow free roaming, the innovation part died when i found out you have a fixed path you need to take, just like in prince of persia

As long as they improve on the original, then I will be happy. That game deserves to be so much more

lol the fanmade one has bigger boobs too 

^^ it is so obviously better :)

The fanmade one sucks. Gaming is not about tits or pretty faces dammit.

+1

Though I do wonder if Faith will continue to be the maincharacter, or if they are starting from scratch story wise. Although of course Mirror's Edge does end with a cliffhanger, so if we do see the story continued, I hope the guys who end up making it get it done properly.

you're telling me 1943 - Bad Company 2 and one of the best news off the year along with The Last Guardian Battlefield 3 (hell yeah)
