Beyond Good & Evil 2 remains in active development at Ubisoft, with an Assassin’s Creed Shadows writer confirming he has been working on the long-awaited game over the past several months.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project survived Ubisoft<\/a>‘s major restructuring earlier this year, which resulted in several cancellations across the company. While Beyond Good & Evil 2 director Fawzi Mesmar previously confirmed the game remained unaffected, updates have been extremely limited since then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, another Ubisoft developer has provided fresh confirmation that work is continuing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ubisoft Writer Has Been Supporting Beyond Good & Evil 2<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rik Godwin<\/strong>, Lead Writer and Associate Narrative Director at Ubisoft Bordeaux, revealed on Bluesky<\/a> that he has been supporting the Beyond Good & Evil 2 team for the past few months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Godwin currently works across several Ubisoft projects and franchises, including Assassin’s Creed Shadows and Ghost Recon<\/strong>, while serving in a support and consulting role on Beyond Good & Evil 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He even noted that he checked whether he was allowed to publicly mention his involvement before sharing the information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s a small update, but an important one considering the game’s extraordinary development history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond Good & Evil 2 was originally announced in 2008<\/strong> before being reintroduced at E3 2017. Ubisoft subsequently showed gameplay in 2018, but public updates have become increasingly rare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The game is still described as an action-adventure RPG playable solo or in co-op<\/strong>, with players able to explore and fight across planets and space at dramatically different scales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Beyond Good & Evil 2 still has no confirmed release date. However, Godwin's recent involvement provides fresh evidence that development is continuing despite the project's unusually long and turbulent history.<\/code><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
