Ubisoft confirms that Michel Ancel isn’t working on Beyond Good and Evil 2

Tony Key, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Ubisoft, confirms Michel Ancel is not currently working on Beyond Good and Evil 2.

In an interview with IGN that has since been taken down, Key said that Ancel was not working on the sequel. “So he’s a busy guy right now. But no…. He’s got things going on and I can’t really comment on his bandwidth. I know he’s very busy. We still work with him on things.”

Beyond Good and Evil 2 was confirmed last year for this new generation of consoles, but since then Ancel has started up his own studio and is already working on a new game called WiLD, although he still remains at Ubisoft for now.

Commenting on the progress of Beyond Good and Evil 2, Key remarked “There’s just nothing to talk about right now. We don’t really have anything to say. We appreciate how much people really want it.”
