Sometimes the term “Cult Classic" can be abused. Beyond Good and Evil, on the other hand, is the exact definition
Beyond Good and Evil is basically Ubisoft trying to create their version of Zelda, specifically Ocarina of Time, which came out just a few years before in 1998. For such a high watermark, Ubisoft delivered. There are secrets to find, puzzles to solve, dungeons to explore, close range combat, upgrades to do and in the place of your trusty steed, you have a hovercraft. The most important feature is that Jade’s adventure still carves out its own identity.
While Beyond Good and Evil 2 remains in development limbo, Virtuos Games have given the original the new life. The 20th Anniversary Edition or technically 21st Anniversary edition includes visual changes and now runs at 4K60, quality of life fixes and even includes an exclusive new mission that connects the dots between this and Beyond Good and Evil 2, which is a good reason to believe that the sequel is still progressing slow.
