Mirror's Edge Catalyst still has a little bit to go before launch, but that doesn't mean we can't enjoy the all new "Why We Run" Launch trailer that is action packed with everything the Mirror's Edge franchise is known for. When asked about what we can expect in Catalyst, Christofer Ermgard had this to say about DICE's upcoming sequel,
"You will recognize maybe the names of some characters, but they will be different characters in this one. Sometimes we even have the name and the look, but the character, what they do is still different, so there are some carry-overs in terms of ideas."
They also went to talk about how the Faith we knew in Mirror's Edge will have a ton more personality and quality to her. She is the similar, but we can expect more from her in the game.
In Mirror’s Edge Catalyst, you will experience the rise of Faith, a daring Runner who uncovers a hidden truth within the walls of the city of Glass. Through her journey, Faith will explore the city, from the highest, most pristine skyscrapers, to the dark and gritty tunnels that lie beneath. Players will need to master the environment, using their momentum and timing their combat to fight the oppression of the ruling elite, uncovering the dark secrets behind the city’s beautiful façade. Mirror’s Edge Catalyst gives players the freedom to explore the city, discovering a variety of new activities, like ‘Dash’, races from point A to B, environmental puzzles and story missions to complete at their own pace.
