After first announcing Mirror’s Edge Catalyst at E3 this year, EA has released new gameplay footage for the visually stylish, parkour-focused title at this year’s Gamescom. The game promises to take players through the origin story of courier-slash-revolutionary Faith, described by senior EA producer Sara Jansson at Gamescom as “a hero who is truly unique — dare I say the most unique hero in video games.” If you enjoyed the first Mirror’s Edge then the new footage is pretty much everything you could hope for: there’s free-running combat, an expansive (and disquietingly clean) city to explore, and, best of all, no guns.
