How many would have expected one remastered of Mirror’s Edge? The title released in 2008 for the seventh generation of consoles (PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360) has always been recognized as a particular product, which has been able to involve players of all kinds in an action world totally detached from the scene of shooters that in that period was the master. Well, thanks to a rumor, it would seem that this remastered is not just a wish or hypothesis.
This theory stems from a post published on 4chan by a user, who claims that Mirror’s Edge Remastered be reality and they are “keeping it hidden”, as if they wanted to get it out at the right moment. According to the post, the likely release date for the game could be February 2022, although there have been no official leaks or communications about it.
So how do you talk so confidently about the existence of this Remastered? Everything would be due to the already discussed leak of the NVIDIA Geforce Now titles which has already been discussed; between these, the home game DICE was also marked, obviously without specifying release dates or anything else.
The discussion, however, continues, pointing out how it is possible that this announcement could be made during The Game Awards 2021, whose schedule not only includes the awards but also a large section dedicated to announcements. NVIDIA itself could use this to make a Microsoft-style announcement, emulating what was done at both this year’s E3 and earlier with titles coming to Xbox Game Pass.
After the collapse of Catalyst, the sequel released in 2016, Mirror’s Edge had fallen into the oblivion of video games. Could this remastered be the pretext to bring it back into vogue? Hard to say, the game features anyway mechanics over a decade old: it is therefore hoped that these have been filed and adapted to today’s technologies, in order to make the title more usable for those approaching it for the first time.
If this operation goes well, the conditions could also arise for a “rebirth” of the brand, which can re-propose the same type of game but perhaps implementing it with a VR system. We will therefore wait to see how NVIDIA will move, since it all depends on the outcome that the Geforce Now system will have.
