Mirror’s Edge Catalyst moves to June 7th

A bit of bad news for fellow Mirror’s Edge fans… EA and DICE have pushed back the release of Mirror’s Edge Catalyst by around 2 weeks. So from May 24th to June 7th for those keeping track.

According to the game’s design director, Catalyst likely would need another 2 weeks to better take into account player feedback from the upcoming beta test. It sucks, but it makes sense to us…

See the note regarding the game’s updated release date on the official blog and below.

Hello everyone,
As you know, we?re about to open the gates to the city of Glass for participants of the Closed Beta. One of the key features of the Beta and the full game is Social Play, detailed in our latest developer diary.

Taking on Dashes designed by DICE, creating your own Time Trials, climbing the Leaderboards, and connecting with your Runner friends are some of the Social Play features we?re really excited about ? and something we want to play flawlessly.

To support the Social Play features, we are using a brand new online technology. We also want to make sure we have the opportunity and time to address player feedback from the Closed Beta. That is why we will give ourselves a bit more time to perfect the game, with a new release date for Mirror?s Edge Catalyst of June 7th (NA) and June 9th (EU). We?re confident that these extra two weeks will make sure the game is as amazing as possible for you the players.

Thank you all for your continued support and excitement for Mirror?s Edge Catalyst. The return of Faith is imminent.

Erik Odeldahl, Design Director
