EA has called Mirror’s Edge “an important franchise” in a statement issued to US video games website 1up.

The publisher’s statement comes in response to a report suggesting that development of Mirror’s Edge 2 has been cancelled.

EA, which recently released a sequel to the only moderately successful Dead Space, said that it has “nothing further to announce” and that Mirror’s Edge developer DICE is currently working on Battlefield 3.

It’s certainly true that DICE has a lot on its plate at the moment. The studio is known to be working on Battlefield 3 and a third game in the Bad Company series seems like a certainty given the second game’s success. Perhaps there’s no room for Mirror’s Edge 2 at the moment.
