I’m charismatic when it comes to the release of the next Beyond Good & Evil title, however, the president of Ubisoft North America doubts that the squeal will ever get a release.

When being interviewed, Ubisoft’s Laurent Detoc stated that it’s possible that the title may never get a release date – when being questioned about the risks of the new IP.

“Yes, that worked out, but it doesn’t work out every time, and sometimes you come back to an IP that didn’t work because you still think it could have – like Beyond Good and Evil, which was leaked, so now people know we’re working on a new one,” said Detoc in an interview with IndustryGamers.

“Whether or not it comes out remains to be seen anyway, but we didn’t want to abandon that IP because it has a cache and authenticity about it. There’s something very pure about that game and it’s too bad that we were not able to build it as an IP at the time.”

He later then denied that the squeal had ever been confirmed.

“Well, I didn’t say there’s definitely going to be another game. I said something had leaked, which means we’ve been working on some Beyond Good and Evil stuff, but whether there’s going to be another game or not, that’s something for the future. But getting to your question as to why there’s work on the IP again, it’s a creative people business; the creative talent is interested in it and possibly exploring how to do it from a new angle.”

If you can’t wait to see what, or how, Beyond Good & Evil 2 looks like, don’t need to anymore.

Kotaku have gotten there hands on a video that shows a woman dressed very much like Jade in what she was waring during the games announcement UbiDays trailer, running through a rundown looking town, avoiding police, climbing on top of a building and then making her ultimate escape.

To make a great game you’ll need inspiration, and the ideas that come with it. So here’s a question, what was the  inspiration behind the sequel to Beyond Good & Evil?

When speaking to French gaming website All-Gamers, Beyond Good & Evil creator Michel Ancel candidly revealed his inspiration for the games’ sequel.

“There were a lot of inspirations: the Miyazaki universe, my own inspirations, politics and the media; the theme of September 11 – the CNN show with army messages and the fear climate. And it was a mix from other universes,”  Ancel told All-Gamers.

He continued talking about the game in general;

“Yes,” he said, when asked if BG&E2 will be a direct sequel. “But it is better to discover that when you play, ha ha! But it is clear we want to continue the story – we won’t create characters, story. The story continues and we’ll react on important events of the first.

Looks like good things are coming out of Ubidays 08 this year because today Ubisoft finally announced Beyond Good & Evil 2. In the trailer you find Jade, the main character, sitting on top of a car and the pig is sleeping the under the sun by a tree. There was no other details given about the game at this time.
