EA confirmed today that Mirror’s Edge will launch for both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on November 14th, with US getting it a little earlier on the 11th. The PC version of Mirror’s Edge will ship later in the winter.
Prior to launch, players worldwide will get an early peek at the game when the demo becomes available via Xbox LIVE Marketplace and PlayStation Store. The demo will feature the prologue of the game including the tutorial and a segment of the single-player story mode. Starting September 26th, players who pre-order Mirror’s Edge at selected retailers will get an exclusive code that unlocks the Time Trial mode in the demo.
Time Trial mode challenges players to find the fastest route across the rooftops and through the streets. Players can upload their best time to the Mirror’s Edge leaderboards for their friends to download and compete against. Players can see their friend’s ‘ghost’ run as they race their way through the course to the top of the leaderboards.
”Mirror’s Edge is bringing something new to the action-adventure genre this holiday by putting the player in the shoes of the hero, seeing what she sees, feeling what she feels,” says Owen O’Brien, Senior Producer, DICE. ”We wanted to create an entirely new experience, with a different type of heroine and a world that not only looks fresh and new but has unique gameplay.”
