Beyond Good & Evil 2 will give the player a unique chance to freely explore System 3, a stunning new solar system and the upcoming prequel’s main playground. While Ubisoft has already released plenty of fascinating details on Soma, one of the most important planets of System 3, and its oriental capital, known as Ganesha City, now it's time to learn more about the dark side of this planet-sized moon.
According to Ubisoft, "
Soma, the first place to be colonized in System 3, is not only the home to Ganesha City, but also Naraka, the Diwalite-rich “dark side” of this planet-sized moon. Orbiting around Dyaus and forever turned away from the protection of this gas giant, Naraka is a craterous and treacherous land frequently bombarded by meteorites, where the business of collecting Diwalite gets serious… and deadly." In
BG&E2, Diwalite is a rare metal that can be combined with other materials and programmed to generate complex structures and, most importantly, living organisms.
On Soma, hybrids are forced by their corporate masters to risk their lives in a harsh environment to gather the dangerous and powerful resource raining down from the skies. In the prequel, you will take on the role of a space pirate, so you will have to choose between attacking hybrid slave ships and free them by force and boarding Diwalite transport ships in an attempt to steal their precious cargo.
