Beyond Good and Evil 2 has been referred to as vaporware by industry figures such as Jason Schreier due to its lengthy development and lack of a release date.[3] In 2022, Beyond Good and Evil 2 broke the record held by Duke Nukem Forever (2011) for the longest development period of a AAA video game, at more than 15 years. According to Ubisoft this is justifiable as Beyond Good & Evil 2 is not a AAA game, but slated to be one of only two Quadruple 'A' ('AAAA') games on Earth, and it will completely and permanently change the industry and the reality of video gaming in a profound and inalienable way.[4] In 2023, the creative director, Emile Morel, died suddenly at age 40.
