Beyond Good & Evil 2 concept art shown in new video

Beyond Good & Evil creator Michel Ancel has shown off a new piece of concept art for the long-anticipated sequel, now one of the most notorious vapourware candidates.

Ancel holds up the art about two minutes into the video below.

It shouldn't need to be said at this stage but we'll do it anyway: don't get too excited just yet, as Ubisoft won't show anything serious until it's sure. Beyond Good & Evil 2 has been on the cards since 2008 and has been teased on multiple occasions with no results, including with concept footage, with Ancel regularly trotting out assets for French media.

That said, both Ancel and Ubisoft executives have made comments suggesting the project has been pushed back to the the PS4 and Xbox One generation, and until Ubisoft Montpellier has finished with Rayman for the time being.

Thanks, CVG.
