Beyond Good and Evil 2 gameplay footage shows that running is awesome

Kotaku has posted a video of what they say is the first acutal gameplay footage of Beyond Good and Evil 2 – although they are not 100% sure.

The footage shows a female protagonist, who looks very similar to Jade, the heroine from the first game, running through city streets and rooftops, ones that look a lot more lifelike that the original 2003 game – although still somewhat familiar. There is also parkour, jumping, and dodging of things involved too.

It looks kinda like Mirror’s Edge for a third-person perspective in our opinion.
