EA Games chief Frank Gibeau has confirmed that there is still life in the Mirrors Edge franchise, and that it could return in partnership with DICE’s powerful new Frostbite 2 engine.

Speaking to Game Trailers TV, Gibeau said: “We’re actively looking at how to bring it [Mirror’s Edge] back in the right way. We love that franchise. The DICE guys really created something special the first time around. You’ve got to have a big idea to be able to do the next one and that’s what we’re working on.”

In regards to a Frostbite 2/ Mirror’s Edge amalgamation he stated: “You’ll see that combination, I’m sure.”

DICE’s Battlefield 3 and Blackbox’s Need For Speed: The Run are currently using Frostbite 2 and EA will be hoping that it can reinvigorate the Mirror’s Edge franchise. The original somewhat underperformed at retail when it was released back in November 2008.
