Beyond Good & Evil‘s oft-requested, long-teased sequel has finally, officially been confirmed by its publisher Ubisoft. The company’s 2017 E3 press conference ended with BG&E2‘s bombastic reveal via a lengthy, pre-rendered sequence.

Even without real-time gameplay or a confirmed release date, BG&E2‘s reveal stole the show with a zany heist sequence loaded with original-game callbacks. The reveal starred a larcenous talking monkey who tricks a black-market trader into accepting a fraudulent trade. (This black-market trader, by the way, goes by the name Pey’j and looks just like the talking pig of the same name from the original adventure game.)
