Prince Of Persia: The Sands Of Time Remake Development Shifts To Original Developer

Prince of Persia, The Sands of Time: This beloved action-adventure entry is the first Ubisoft Montreal release in 2003. 

Ubisoft had announced in September 2020 that The Sands of Time would be remade. Ubisoft Pune, Ubisoft Mumbai, and Ubisoft Pune were responsible for the development. Ubisoft revealed that the remake was delayed for two months after it had been originally planned to launch in January 2021. Just three months later, Ubisoft announced that The Sands of Time was delayed indefinitely and that’s when fans began to wonder what was going on with this remake. It sounds like Ubisoft Pune and Ubisoft Mumbai couldn’t get a grasp on the remake because now, the publisher has revealed that the remake’s development has been shifted to Ubisoft Montreal, the original creator of the game. 

“The development of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake will now be led by Ubisoft Montreal, the very birthplace of the epic Sands of Time trilogy,” a statement from the official Prince of Persia Twitter account reads. “This decision is an important step and the team, building upon the work achieved by Ubisoft Pune and Ubisoft Mumbai, will now take the time they need to regroup on the scope of the game to deliver you the best experience for this remake of an all-time classic, when it’s ready. Your patience, support, and continuous assistance throughout development are greatly appreciated. Rest assured, that we will update you on the progress in a future update.” 

The remake does not have a new release date due to this change, and is theoretically delayed indefinitely. If there was a release date attached to the project, there’s a good chance today’s news would have brought with it a new delay anyway.
