EA have seen a prototype of Mirror’s Edge 2 and decided to can the project, moving the small team of DICE developers who were working on the sequel to other projects.
The news comes via a Press 2 Play report, translated by Eurogamer, which says that “Patrick [Soderlund - EA driving and shooting game boss] acknowledges that Mirror’s Edge didn’t match up to their expectations regarding sales, and that has stopped the sequel that has been in development.”
“EA was shown a prototype, but declined with askance. The project has been stopped – involved parties at DICE are working on something else now. Patrick himself seems to have Mirror’s Edge near his heart, but they are not in the business of charity.”
