The Prince of Persia has finally made his grand return to video games...in For Honor. Yes, despite the constant cries for a new entry in the franchise, Ubisoft has decided to let us down one more time by adding the protagonist to a new time-limited event inside the publisher's overlooked live-service title.
Available from today through until 2nd April, you'll be able to play as the Prince of Persia and get to "team up with fellow warriors to defend the throne." The free Event Track, which we assume is some sort of Battle Pass, will reward items throughout the event.
It's definitely a bit of a disappointment that the IP is simply being used for a limited-time event in another video game, but at least Ubisoft is still aware of the franchise, right? The French company is also resurrecting the name with a VR escape room experience named The Dagger of Time, which will be playable at 300 locations around the world. Prince of Persia doesn't have a video game to call its own yet, but at least it's getting there quicker than Splinter Cell's Sam Fisher is. Come on Ubisoft, you know what to do. Bring them both back.

I hate Ubisoft so much.
To be fair, that’s pretty cool. At least they’re aware of the demand for PoP to come back.
I just want prince of persia the sand of time (or the whole trilogy) remastered for ps4 with the same care as shadow of the colossus, crash, and spyro remaster.
Play Darksiders 2. That's the best Prince of Persia game we've had in over a decade.
Insert Ryan Reynolds But...why gif
Spoiler: I don't know how to post gifs 😅
Oh maaaaan (in swiper's voice, definitely watching too much Dora)
Just do another Rayman akin to Origins and all is well.
Really, For Honor they could have at least done it in a series that made sense like Assassin's Creed
@nookie_egg
Id rather see Rayman in For Honor. Now I really want that to happen.
Also, Blades of Persia is cool but I've been wanting Fishermen of Alaska for years now. I want a giant salmon as a club that I can pummel someone with. And a legitimately true living cod piece.
Are you listening Ubisoft???
Where's Rayman
I forgot For Honor was still a thing. Now that I think about it: Ghost Recon, The Division 2, Rainbow 6, For Honor; Ubisoft really has gone all in with the live services.
