The game can be completed easily in one sitting. If the rumored 2016 release date holds true, we have plenty of time to dust off our copies of Mirror's Edge, but you won't have to set aside much time to finish it up.
At last year's Electronic Entertainment Expo, Electronic Arts updated Mirror's Edge's lifetime-to-date sales to over 2.5 million.Īt that show, Electronic Arts also revealed that free-runner Faith was coming back in a Mirror's Edge sequel. Despite garnering considerable buzz and positive reviews, the game didn't come close to hitting its sales forecast of three million – selling just one million copies as of February 2009. I thought Mirror's Edge would fall into the category of "loved by many, but likely never to return." The game released on November 12, 2008, and almost became a cult hit overnight. Games that fall outside this window are usually one and done, or destined to come back in a much different way years removed from the initial offering. A successful intellectual property usually lands a sequel within one to three years.
