Ubisoft and lead designer Michel Ancel have confirmed that Beyond Good and Evil 2 is now in development. A post on the original game's Facebook page revealed this morning that Ubisoft Montpellier is at work with Ancel on the project.

That puts an end to ambiguous hints about the developer’s current collaboration with Ubisoft. Beyond the confirmation itself, there are no new details about Beyond Good and Evil 2. If you've been waiting for news about BG&E... well, here you go! We are delighted to confirm that Michel Ancel is currently working with the Ubisoft Montpellier Studio on a new Beyond Good & Evil game.
