After countless delays, Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Remake seems to be showing signs of falling into “Development Hell” when Ubisoft Montreal announced it would redo everything from scratch.
First announced at the event Ubisoft Foward In 2020, Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Remake had to continuously postpone its release date. It was initially scheduled for release in 2021, with Ubisoft Pune and Ubisoft Mumbai handling development. But the announcement trailer turned out to be a disaster, causing publisher Ubisoft to decide to take the project to Ubisoft Montreal, which made the original Sands of Time game.
While there is currently no confirmed launch date, Ubisoft Montreal suddenly said that he would scrap everything that had been done before and start over from the beginning. According to Insider Gaming, Ubisoft Montreal has abandoned what Ubisoft Pune and Ubisoft Mumbai did before, deciding to start building a new project. The source also said that previously leaked images of Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Remake were missing textures, so it will likely take a few more years.
The new version of Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Remake promises to bring a “realistic approach” with improved graphics, movements and better mechanics compared to the previous build. Yuri Lowenthal, the actor who voices Spider-Man in the house's game series Insomniac Games, will also not reprise his role as the Prince, even though he appeared in the game's announcement trailer. Therefore, currently Prince of Persia lovers can only look forward to a rumored Roguelike-style project from Evil Empire never mind.
More specifically, there have been reports about the game The Rogue Prince of Persia Developed by Evil Empire, with a gameplay style that appears to be similar to the Dead Cells game franchise. With Ubisoft's success transitioning from traditional third-person action-adventure to side-scrolling through Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, perhaps the publisher is looking to experiment with another possibility. , in addition to continuing to update content for The Lost Crown at least until the end of this year.
