Update:

Further evidence has surfaced for the existence of Mirror's Edge 2 a help page for the game was spotted on EA's site.

While the page only holds the name of the game and little else, it's worth noting that changing the URL to Mirror's Edge 3 leads to a dead page.Yesterday the unconfirmed sequel received a retail listing on Amazon Italy, which you can read about below.

A second retail listing has appeared for the unconfirmed Mirror's Edge 2, this time listing the game for Xbox One.The Amazon Italy listing has since been removed, but not before we managed to screengrab it. Seeing as the boxart is clearly mocked up, and the release date was listed as January 1, 2020, this is by no means official confirmation of the game's existence. However, this is the second incident in less than a week of an online retailer listing the title; last Thursday it appeared on Amazon Germany for Xbox 360.In response to the previous listing, EA told IGN, "We appreciate fan enthusiasm for Mirror’s Edge, especially fans throughout the retail channel. This is not official EA material. We have nothing to announce at this time." We've reached out for comment once more, though expect a similar response.Back at E3 2011, EA Labels president Frank Gibeau indicated that Mirror’s Edge 2 could happen using the Frostbite 2 engine . Gibeau said the publisher was “ still considering ” the title in July 2012, and DICE executive producer Patrick Bach told IGN in August that Mirror’s Edge is “ too good to kill .”There are less than two weeks to go now until EA’s E3 2013 press conference on Monday, June 10th. If Mirror's Edge 2 is on the way, whether just for the Xbox One or other platforms as well, there's every chance we'll hear about it then.
