Mirror’s Edge reboot announcement was delayed because DICE wanted to get the right idea

Mirror’s Edge had been one of those games ahead of it’s time and lucky for us it’s getting a reboot. This time we’ll be able to experience the action-adventure on next-gen consoles, and that’s the reason why it has taken so long for DICE to reveal the game.

EA Games executive vice president Patrick Söderlund spoke to GameReactor, saying that they wanted to get the right concept for the game.

"Well, there's two things when you look at what to build. First and foremost frankly, what does the team want to build? Cause you need a passionate team to get a great game out. And obviously you want to make sure whatever the team wants to build resonates with consumers or players. And in this particular case I think we seem to have done both of those." He said.
