June 12, 2009 - Despite what sales data might tell you, Electronic Arts still wants to see Faith continue her adventure.

Patrick Soderlund, senior vice president at EA Games Europe, told Videogamer the company plans on releasing a sequel to innovative first-person platformer.

"You will see another Mirror's Edge for sure. It's just a matter of when that time is and what we do with it. We have a small team on it and I'm excited about what we do."

Truth and Reconciliation...

This game is slept on like crazy. I thought it was one of if not the best game of 2008. Other than the fact that it was WAY too short. But I thought it was definitely the most innovative game out last year and I'm looking forward to part 2.

It will be hard to top the first game but i think they can do it.

Mirror's Edge: 1250/1250
Fable 2: 1350/1350
X-men Origins Wolverine: 1000/1000

I'm definitely looking forward to it.

Aww, who am I kidding?  What an understatement - I can't wait for this game to come out!  I just hope they don't change the style up too much from the first game, y'know, just to try to sell more copies.

Ditto!  I also hope that they don't royally shag it up by spoiling what was good in the first game.  I suspect that poor sales were more to do with their stupid release schedule than anything else...let's just hope they learned their lesson this time and don't bury it amongst the AAA hitters this Christmas.

They need to add co-op,multiplayer, much better story, some RPG elements maybe, longer game,.. The only thing I wouldn't change would be core gameplay

well it goes to show you that 'reviews' from critics and what not are never truly honest. they try to go for things most of them don't even know what a gamer is looking for. o.o; honestly Mirrors Edge was DIFFERENT. branched us off in a new direction of gaming and i liked it. Tranformers 2 got horrible views from Critics but everyone thats seen it loves the movie. Mirrors Edge didn't get the greatest reviews, but most that played it, enjoyed it :D

MIRRORS EDGE 2 ftw!

'Betray?...you're not going to be willing to change'

^ Yep.  You have to think for yourself. :)

Hopefully it will get a better story.

I happen tolike the story.

If I wouldn't have gotten the game for 20, it wouldn't have been worth it but I just got done finishing it and it was incredible! I'm looking forward to a sequel.

they don't need any of that...

That game is going to take forever I bet.  It'll probably come out 2 years later and be worked on by a new group of people who *** it up.  They could do so much with it though.

I betcha by the time Bad Company 2 or Dante's Inferno comes out, there should already be some footage of Mirror's Edge 2.  It'd be sweet to be able to wallrun and shoot with guns at the same time.  They'd definitely have to work with the aiming reticle though.  It should flash red for excuting headshots  The story should be longer too, I also think they should add a more to the runner's vision feature.   Slowing down time is cool but, those friggin' snipers are too dang accurate.    Co-op would be nice too.   Just finished the story 2 days ago in the first one.  Still have to find 4 more more bags.   Anyone got the Leap of Faith, Tango down! and It's a mee!! achievements?  I don't have those yet.  The speedruns in ME are crazy hard!

who's more annoying 341 Guilty Spark or the narrator from Crackdown? hmmm..

I don't think they need to add shooting guns while doing jumps.  They need to keep it simple.  Just a longer story and adding on to the graphics, more interactions...  Not sure if you saw the game Prototype.  If they could have the graphics and physics for ME and make it like Prototype where you can interact with all the objects.

I really doubt it will come out anytime soon.  Due to the bad sales, they probably decided to scrap a version 2 until later.  So it's getting off to a late start and the developers are all probably working on different games.

Can't be asked to mess around with the quoting so paragraph for paragraph.

Just no. Not only is it unrealistic (go ahead and try it) but Mirrors Edge isn't about the shooting, it's about the running. The empthasise should be on the running. Shooting should always be a last resort.

Aiming reticule doesn't really need work. The aiming system needs a slight refinement though.

The length of Mirrors Edge should be longer but no so long that it gets tedious.

Snipers are supposed to be accurate.

I wouldn't want co-op to be honest. It takes away the feeling of freedom away from the game.

What I do want is the world in Mirrors Edge to have more life in it. Empty offices are kind of dull. I'd love to be barging past the editor carrying a stack of papers forcing him to drop them for example. Little touches like that would help to make the game world more believeable.

If Lost Odyssey hadn't come out in the same year, then Mirror's Edge would have been the best game of 2008 for me, so I am extremely excited for the second. Mirror's Edge is severely underappreciated in so many ways, but I hope the second gives it a second chance to shine.

In terms of what to do with this game....I'm really hoping that they keep it a single player only game. I can see why many would want multiplayer, but multiplayer isn't EVERYTHING. If they do that, then the single player experience will probably suffer, unless they get a bigger team to work on it. I'm excited that a small team is working on it, cause perhaps this means they are keeping it as a single player experience.

I hope they just keep the game the way the first was intended to be, and just upgrade it and fix some of the issues. I don't want more guns and shooting/combat. I don't want it to become free roaming like many wanted it to be. The game is a PLATFORMER, so making it linear makes sense!

I loved Mirror's Edge, and if they do things like more guns or multiplayer to try to appeal to the majority of people, then I will be disappointed. What made Mirror's Edge so awesome was that it took a stand against the standards that many games use.

When people die, they just...go away. If there's any place they do go, it's in your memories.

The first game was so innovative. I hope they keep on keepin on.

The only way they could mess up ME2 is if they improve it so much that it loses the feel and other things we have all come to know and love about the original ME.
