When Michel Ancel said at E3 last week that Beyond Good & Evil 2 may not see a release until next-generation consoles arrive, we'd assumed it was because development of the game was coming along slowly when, in fact, it might just be because current machines just aren't powerful enough.
"I think we are still thinking about what we have to cut to fit on today's consoles, what we can improve. We really want to make the game perfect and as good as possible without cutting things. There is special gameplay that we really want to keep but it needs a certain power," said Ancel, who created the original Beyond Good & Evil in 2003.
Speaking about the development process on BG&E2 to Eurogamer, Ancel continued, "After working on Rabbids, I then jumped into Beyond Good & Evil 2 for a long time. The development is advanced but we need more time to go further because with the hardware and the engine we have to improve it."
With recent reports indicating that Nintendo's Wii U may offer a leg-up on the PS3/Xbox 360's hardware, perhaps it's a platform Ubisoft will consider for BG&E2...
