Ah, Beyond Good & Evil – a great game that did not meet the appropriate commercial success. Even though gamers loved Ubisoft’s new IP, the game ultimately met Shiny’s Giants: Citizen Kabuto and Sacrifice fate and didn’t sell well, despite the positive reviews it got. And although Ubisoft stated – back in 2011 – that Beyond Good & Evil 2 was under development, apart from some leaked screenshots and a video, we have not gotten any new information about its status – until now.

YouTube’s member ‘kamakazi423’ and his team has created an interesting trailer for an upcoming live action short film that will be based on Assassin’s Creed III.
