Ubisoft postponed its next remake of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time indefinitely. The editor announced the delay on Twitter, saying he needed more time to improve the final product.
“Since the announcement Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake in September, we saw many comments from you about this beloved franchise, ”Ubisoft said in a statement assigned to the development team. “It is your passion and support that is driving our development teams to make the best game possible. With that said, we made the decision to change the release to Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake for a later date. This extra development time will allow our teams to deliver a remake that looks new, while remaining true to the original.
“We understand that the update may come as a surprise and we will continue to keep you informed of the progress of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake. In the meantime, we want to thank everyone for their continued support. “
When Ubisoft originally announced Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake, the game was scheduled for January 2021. A few months later, Ubisoft postponed the game to March. This time, Ubisoft chose not to provide a launch window.
The remake of the Prince of Persia series by Ubisoft promises improved visuals, modern controls and new character models, as well as enhanced voices, sounds, parkour animations and soundtrack. It is being developed for PlayStation 4, Windows PC and Xbox One.
The 1989 Prince of Persia franchise has not seen a new entry since 2008 Prince of Persia on PlayStation 3, Windows PC and Xbox 360. The sands of Time was originally released in late 2003 for Game Boy Advance, GameCube, PC, PlayStation 2 and Xbox.
