Rumor: A Mirror's Edge sequel could get cooler with Frostbite 2 engine

4.6

The Mirror's Edge and Battlefield franchises are related through more than developer-publisher relations -- they're poised to share digital DNA. If it is made, a sequel to Mirror's Edge may use Battlefield 3's Frostbite 2 engine, according to Official PlayStation Magazine, which writes, "The Frostbite 2 engine will pave the way for Mirror's Edge to make a free-running return."

We don't know much more about the potential sequel or OPM's "inside whispers," besides the fact that Mirror's Edge is an "important franchise" to EA. We may have to wait until EA and DICE stop coddling Battlefield 3 for confirmation of another game or details about its engine. For now, dreaming about free-running on Frostbite 2 will have to tide us over. Mmmm...

I loved Mirror's Edge and played it for very long, and am really excited for the second part to come out after the ending of the first one.

need for speed: the run is going to use the frostbite 2 engine, but it is going to be made by black box. (the people who made skate.)

ZBrush Well seeing as how Physx was a phenomenal improvement on PC mirrors edge, I can see this really boosting this game into the future.

Imagine Frostbite 2.0 + Physx running on mirrors edge 2.

Building destruction and realistic cloth physics FTW.

Oh God My Shorts Are Soaked. Ffs.
