Beyond good and evil 2 As long as Duke Nuchem Forever exists, it’s not “under development” yet, but it’s happening. Our first “It’s still happening” post came up 2012— Already a few years after it was announced — and our latest February 2020..
It’s a rare situation, and it’s a little strange today: BG & E creator Michel Ancel, who continues to work on the sequel, announced today on Instagram that he’ll be leaving the gaming industry to work with animals.
“After more than 30 years, I decided to stop working on video games and focus entirely on my second passion, wildlife,” he wrote. “My new project takes place in the real world and consists of education, nature lovers, and … a wildlife sanctuary dedicated to wildlife.”
For Beyond Good and Evil 2, he said there was nothing to worry about: “[For] The team has now been autonomous for several months and the project is going very well. Beautiful things that can be seen immediately. “
My first thought was that this could be another one of those Ubisoft developers. “jokeBut the company issued statement Confirmed his departure.
“Michel Ancel has decided to stop working on video games to focus on other personal projects and will no longer be part of the BG & E2 team,” wrote senior producer Guillaume Brunier. “For years, Michelle gave him a creative vision and helped us stay true to the incredible universe of BG & E. We will do our best to stay true to this vision. I’m pouring. “
The statement also states that Ancel “has not been directly involved in BG & E2 for some time,” and the development team “is working hard to build on a solid creative foundation that helped him shape.” I also mentioned that it seems to be working.
“We recently passed a key internal milestone, offered a build that proved Space Pirate Fantasy, and hours of gameplay in a seamless online sandbox, based on the tech demo promise presented at E3. Provides an incredible level of freedom, “Brunier wrote. .. “I’m incredibly proud of the team’s patience, their dedication to each other, and their ongoing commitment to developing great games.”
The development team has grown and Ubisoft Paris has been added as a “partner studio”. Brunier said he hopes to be able to show off more “Beyond Good and Evil 2” next year.
