Mirror's Edge 2 Development Prototype Footage Emerges
Mirror's Edge 2, a sequel that was canned in 2011 by EA, made it as far as the prototyping stage before development stopped. Faith's look is similar to her original outing, with the officer in full body armor. While the footage itself doesn't reveal any significant changes to the game via new mechanics, it does show that DICE did intend on continuing Faith's story, despite the disappointing sales of the original game that resulted in several members of the staff moving onto other projects.
In 2008, EA released several games under a set of new IP for the publisher, including Dead Space, Burnout Paradise, and Mirror's Edge. All three games were received well by fans and critics alike, with each game offering vastly different experiences. However, the initiative was short lived, as EA changed its tune and quickly focused on games with microtransactions as a major focal point. While Dead Space quickly became a fan favorite and received multiple sequels, Mirror's Edge was left out, with the franchise remaining dormant until EA announced the prequel Mirror's Edge Catalyst, which was launched in 2016 for PS4 and Xbox One.
Despite being liked by fans when it was released, Mirror's Edge Catalyst didn't perform well sales-wise, according to EA's expectations. The series once again went dormant, and while fans have voiced interest in another Mirror's Edge game, EA has remained quiet as it is currently focusing on Star Wars, Battlefield, and the much-anticipated Dragon Age 4, as well as several yearly sports titles.
Meanwhile, Dead Space fans may be able to scratch that itch as the creator of the series is now working on a spiritual successor to the game with The Callisto Protocol. Being developed by Striking Distance Studios, the game is looking to fill a gap in the horror genre left since the release of Dead Space 3 in 2013. Studio head Glen Schofield, who served as an executive producer of the Dead Space series, wants The Callisto Protocol to be the scariest game on current-gen hardware.
