because it will make the vagueness of today's rumor even more hilarious for you, we're going to walk you through the incredible history of beyond good & evil 2 real quick:

• may 2008: ubisoft announces beyond good & evil 2, with a trailer and everything, though not specifically naming it as such.
• july 2009: ubisoft north america's president laurent detoc says that while bg&e stuff is being worked on, it doesn't necessarily mean another game is on the way.
• august 2009: gamersyde says it's on hold, and ubisoft won't comment one way or another.

and now, here we are in january of 2010. as spotted by vg247, gamekult asked ubisoft france boss geoffroy sardin about i am alive and bg&e 2 and was told, ''''''ils sont toujours en production tous les deux''''''; roughly translated, ''''''they're both always in production.''''''

alright, so which do you prefer: canceled and dead forever or always in production?rumor: ubisoft maintains beyond good & evil 2 still in production originally appeared on joystiq on thu, 14 jan 2010 12:45:00 est. please see our terms for use of feeds.
