Mirror's Edge Catalyst gets new trailer named Why We Run
Mirror’s Edge Catalyst got a new trailer today, promptly called “Why We Run”. In the trailer itself it shows more into the story, such as conflicts with Faith, and a little bit more information about the characters. A large part of the trailer was also the traversing and movement in the game. Wall sprinting, jumping, and sliding on ropes seems to be the popular way to move. Some footage of hand-to-hand combat was also shown, complementing the fact that Faith wont have weapons in the game. Mirror’s Edge Catalyst will release on June 7th in the United Stated and June 9th in Europe. If your a EA access member however you will be able to play the game 5 days earlier. If this got you excited for the game then I hope your ready.
