[Software] Confirmed: there will be a Beyond Good and Evil in 2024, which one?

[Dean Ambrose™]

Beyond Good and Evil is one of the video game sagas that has been playing for the longest time because we have completed more than 15 years since it began to be heard that there would be a second installment of the original 2003 title. A game that is not something to write home about either, just plain fun, and with a leading couple as strange as it is endearing. So we get to 2023.

And so far this year we have heard about Beyond Good and Evil several times, always as a reference to that sequel that is becoming a meme, as an example of how certain games that "are coming" can be delayed and delayed over and over again. "buttocks." So what we have learned in the last few hours has left us both disconcerted and hopeful that we are close to a definitive resolution to this mystery.

20 years since the first Beyond Good and Evil
The fact is that it was accidental but we have all learned that Ubisoft is preparing a version that will celebrate the 20 years of the game and that will go on sale in 2024, when it turns 21. The result of that strategy is that Beyond Good & Evil: 20th Anniversary Edition gives us back the magic of the development of the early 2000s as it deserves, with a graphical restyling.

So much so that this remaster will arrive with graphics in 4K resolution and 60 frames per second, although it remains to be seen whether the French have decided to put their hand into the quality of the textures, models, etc. We don't think it will go that far, so this Beyond Good and Evil: 20th Anniversary Edition will be more aligned with other similar initiatives such as Dark Forces or the first three Tomb Raider from the 90s.

We cannot say that Beyond Good and Evil: 20th Anniversary Edition is not known at this point, but it is surely more so because of the mockery that is already being made about the launch of the second and its continuous delays, than because many gamers still have it in their memory. unforgettable games of the first.

Is Ubisoft trying to resituate the saga?
This move by Ubisoft is not a coincidence because it is obvious that it is too forced: it celebrates the 20th anniversary of a game when it is already 21, because Beyond Good and Evil came out in 2003, so we can only understand something like an attempt to place the franchise in the forefront of the news so that it can serve as a springboard for the arrival of its second part. Something that we don't quite believe, but that could be on the table.

After all, since we learned about the development of that second part in 2008, so many gamers have been born that Beyond Good and Evil sounds like Chinese to them, so we have to make it understood to everyone no matter what. And a remake of the 2003 title is a good alternative because, in addition, if the flute sounds, they could earn a few million and convince themselves that continuing with the sequel is not going to mean a financial blow to them. Which is what it seems like right now.
