Prince of Persia: Sands of Time remake will not be shown during this year’s Ubisoft Forward

Prince of persia sands of time remake

The Prince of Persia series has been neglected for Ubisoft’s biggest moneymakers; Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry, and Rainbow Six, which has led to the franchise being stagnant for far too long, and the last game in the mainline series, The Forgotten Sands, released in 2010, which was over a decade ago.

Last year’s Ubisoft Forward gave us the first look at Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Remake, which opened to mostly negative reception from fans of the series and newcomers alike due to its disappointing graphics, even for a remake. This backlash led to the game being delayed to March 18 2021 from its original January 21 2021 release date, followed by an indefinite delay a month before its supposed release. 

Unfortunately for those of you who were looking forward to an update on the Remake during this year’s Ubisoft Forward, the official Prince of Persia Twitter posted an update regarding their current situation, stating that they “are not yet ready to share any additional information just yet” and as a result, the game will not be shown off during Ubisoft Forward.

The original Prince of Persia: Sands of Time was the first game in a reimagined trilogy of the series and the game introduced the infamous Sands of Time, an essence that allowed its wielder to manipulate time itself. The game was released for PS2, Nintendo GameCube, Xbox, Gameboy Advance, and PC and was a massive hit.

Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Remake is being developed for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
