Mirrors edge engine
It will also transition to a more open experience for gamers. The new open-world approach to Faith's world will be more of a reboot or prequel focusing on Faith's origin story. The second installment in the Mirror's Edge series was confirmed at E3 last year and will not be a direct sequel to the events of the first game. That said, the developers have promised a gameplay experience that could only be possible thanks to the power of new-gen consoles and current PCs, and it doesn't sound like EA or DICE have any plans to rush Mirror's Edge 2 out of the gates before it is 100% ready. The game has already seen a few delays, which were credited to DICE rather than EA, so a show of some concrete assets at E3 would help demonstrate to worried fans that the project is back on the right track. It's a little strange that the art is stamped with the Mirror's Edge logo, rather than a new Mirror's Edge 2 marker, but hopefully EA is just holding back the bulk of the new assets until the company takes the stage later today. The post looks much more like concept art than a screen cap of the upcoming open-world free-running game and had no description except for an #E32014 tag. The image showed up yesterday on the official Mirror's Edge Facebook page and features Faith overlooking the rooftops of a sprawling skyscraper-filled city. Some fans were disappointed with the vague promise of an'update, rather than gameplay footage or a trailer, but lots of gamers are still crossing their fingers for something more substantial than EA has hinted, so far.Įlectronic Arts' E3 press conference is still a few hours away, but parkour and free-running fans are already geeking out thanks to a sneak preview of some brand new art featuring Faith and her iconic red split-toed shoes.
