Mirror’s Edge Catalyst is the upcoming sequel to the fan favorite Mirror’s Edge video game.


Were there that many fans?

Mirror's Edge has more of a cult fanbase if anything. Sales of the game were decent but not great, and there was a comic book that was put out by Dark Horse Comics that greater went into the details of Faith and the universe in which she lived. Fans of the game however (myself included) were pissed that the first game ended on somewhat of a cliffhanger, and then was swept under the rug while EA went on to concentrate on other blockbuster series like Kane and Lynch *cough* and Army of Two *cough*....

I'd have to say that it's popular enough, because enough fans badgered EA and Dice for long enough for them to take a second stab at it. My only gripe is that it doesn't solve the cliffhanger ending from the first one. Catalyst is supposedly either a prequel or a re-imagining of the universe. Details have been rather vague.

The game itself was pretty revolutionary in terms of platforming in the first person perspective, and while it could be straightforward and linear at times, when it worked, oh man...it worked, and very few games would make you feel like a bad ass the way that one could.

Speaking of which, any company out there making Faith action figures? NECA?

Outside of some very clever customs, nope. I'd rather see an import company like Figurearts or Figma handle Faith though, because as beautiful as I'm sure Neca would make it, I'd actually like to be able to pose her in some of her more agile poses, as opposed to having to worry about something snapping off everytime I move a limb.
