RUMOR: Mirror’s Edge 2 Using Battlefield 3 Engine?

RUMOR: Mirror’s Edge 2 Using Battlefield 3 Engine?

None

We still haven’t heard a full confirmation of Mirror’s Edge 2, but we are already hearing rumors about the engine it will run on.

Back in June, a rumor was going around that Mirror’s Edge would be using the Frostbite 2 engine. (That’s the impressive engine that Battlefield 3 runs on.) However, EA Games’ Frank Gibeau seemed to have dis-confirmed this early on. Now, there are rumors going around that Frank’s sarcastic statement of “You’ll see that combination [Mirror’s Edge and Frostbite 2] I’m sure” was less sarcastic than previously advertised. A statement in Official PlayStation Magazine said “the Frostbite 2 engine will pave the way for Mirror’s Edge to make a free-running return.”



What has EA had to say about this? Nothing yet. Though we do know they are working on some form of “Mirror’s Edge project.” Earlier in July, EA Senior Vice President Patrick Soderlund said, “We have not abandoned the franchise. And we are working on something, but I’m not willing to talk more about that.”

Perhaps that something is tied into Frostbite 2 in some way.
