Ubisoft Thanks Fans as Prince of Persia Remake Delay Persists

Ubisoft has confirmed that the highly anticipated remake of Prince of Persia: Sands of Time is still in development, despite a lengthy wait since its announcement in 2020. After several delays and a complete reboot of the project, Ubisoft stated that they are currently "deep" in the game's development with a tentative release window set for 2026. While fans await news on the remake, Ubisoft encourages them to try The Rogue Prince of Persia, developed by Evil Empire, which is set to leave early access soon. Although the remake is still a priority, fans are reminded of the Metroidvania installment, The Lost Crown, which fell short in sales despite positive reviews. As Ubisoft restructures and delays various projects, including new titles in their other franchises, players are left with a gap in major releases.

The release of Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Remake is tentatively set for 2026, according to Ubisoft's latest updates on the game's development.

The original Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, released in 2003, was a groundbreaking action-adventure game that introduced innovative gameplay mechanics, including time manipulation. This remake aims to bring the classic title's charm to modern platforms while retaining its beloved elements. The recent emphasis on the franchise reflects Ubisoft's ongoing commitment to revitalizing iconic gaming experiences. The development delays have only amplified fans' eagerness, making the upcoming remake one of the most awaited titles in gaming.
