As much as I’d like to be reporting that Mirror’s Edge is out and it’s awesome, instead I have to break the bad news that we may not be seeing the game as early as we originally hoped.
We just recieved the following from EA:
The launch Mirror’s Edge for iPhone and iPod Touch has been postponed to early 2010. This will allow the development team to add features and enhancements that will expand the gameplay experience. Stay tuned for more details in the new year.
This comes as somewhat of a surprise because as mentioned in our hands-on preview of the game last month, Mirror’s Edge played well, had great graphics, and felt like a complete iPhone game. One can’t help but wonder what extra “features and enhancements" EA is going to be including in the game.
Whatever these extra additions are, it’s nice to know that EA is taking their time with the game to make the initial release as strong as possible. We will keep you updated as we hear more from EA on the status of Mirror’s Edge.
