Beyond Good and Evil 2

Beyond Good and Evil 2 – E3 2017 World Premiere Cinematic Trailer

Beyond Good and Evil 2 is an action-adventure video game development by Ubisoft Montpellier and to be published by Ubisoft, it is a prequel to 2003’s Beyond Good & Evil. Its development was characterized in the media by uncertainty, doubt and rumours about the game’s future, until it was officially announced at Ubisoft’s E3 2017 conference, although no release window or target platform has been revealed.

Beyond Good and Evil 2 is the spiritual successor to the cult classic, a prequel that will transport players into a profoundly multicultural world, capturing the spirit of the original with grandiose decors and intense dramas that play out across a vast universe. Through the Space Monkey Program, Ubisoft Montpellier will be developing the game alongside its community of fans.

System 3 has become the center of interstellar trade and colonization in the Milky Way of the 24th century, thanks to the creation of Hybrid slaves. While private enterprises fight over resources and power, the first colonists weave together the rich and diverse spiritual and cultural heritages of Old Earth to give meaning to their existence.

Gameplay

Beyond Good and Evil 2 is an action-adventure game set in an open world environment and played from a third-person perspective which takes place at least one generation before the events of Beyond Good & Evil. It has more traditional role-playing elements compared to the first game; the player generates a character that starts the game “at the very bottom of the social system”. The character can be male or female. As the player completes various tasks, they improve in various attributes, and gain spacecraft and crew members which they can also improve over time. The players visits planets that have their own societies, and by completing tasks on these planets, gain new technologies or other facets to improve their spacecraft. Its director, Michel Ancel, said that they do anticipate that there will be a narrative element that includes fixed story events, as well as events based on what decisions the player had made in exploring planets.

The game will have single-player and cooperative player support; even as a single-player, the player can participate in a shared universe, with some events affecting all players at the same time.[3] Beyond Good and Evil 2 will require an internet connection to play both single-player and multiplayer.[5]
