15 years after it was first announced
Beyond Good & Evil 2 has been a long time coming and is apparently still a long way off. At this point, it's kind of hard to believe this thing is ever coming out.

News Beyond Good & Evil 2 Appears to Be Making Some Progress
But not much
It’s been a year since Beyond Good & Evil 2 was announced, and here are some Ubisoft employees talking about it in thick French accents.

E3 2017 We're Not Entirely Sure What It Is, But Beyond Good & Evil 2 Is Coming to PS4
