Beyond Good and Evil 2 Development Amidst Major Ubisoft Changes

Beyond Good and Evil 2 Development Update
Beyond Good and Evil 2 development is still ongoing, even after significant shakeups at Ubisoft. On January 21, 2026, Ubisoft underwent a major restructuring that resulted in multiple game cancellations, but progress on this long-awaited title remains steady. Set for release nearly two decades after the first game, this installment has notably experienced delays and extensive developmental hurdles.
Ubisoft's Structural Changes
Recent events at Ubisoft saw the cancellation of six projects, including the well-anticipated Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Remake, leaving some older titles hanging by a thread. However, Beyond Good and Evil 2 has persevered through this tumultuous transition.
Development Timeline
- First revealed: May 30, 2008
- Reportedly safe amid Ubisoft's changes
- Current version in development: since 2017
- Total development cost: over half a billion dollars
- Longest in development among AAA games
Insider Gaming's Tom Henderson confirms that, despite the structural shakeup, the project is still progressing. As fans await news, many hope for a glimpse into the game soon.
