Ubisoft Calls in Second Studio for Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Remake

Who made the original sands of time, and why can't they work on the remake?

@CutchuSlow Ubisoft Montreal was the original studio I believe.

This is doomed.

@IamJT oh I see. Thanks.

I love original so much to willing play ten times re-done something.

I still have in mind FF7R... great game but definitely NOT Final Fantasy 7.

I had this pre-ordered on PS4 before it's first delay. My pre-order was cancelled by simply games. Think they should just give up now

I am surprised they're still working on it.

The original game, while good, was never THAT good to warrant all the time and human effort that has gone into this remake.

What will we see first? This or BG&E2? XD

They should ditch this and make Fenyx 2.

Bought the original on PC, a while back, and the artstyle still looks great, especially in 4K.
Even the PS2 version still looks great on a CRT.

That's why I prefer games with artstyles like this, instead of photorealism, as they age MUCH better.

A remaster of the original version, with some QoL improvements, rendered in 4K, would have been enough.

Honestly at this point just can it and port the original

I hope they can at least re-use the assets, engine, animations etc. to remake the other two PS2 sequels without as much time, effort and cost. Hopefully then they'll stand a better chance of a decent return on investment (and give us a complete trilogy).

@CutchuSlow he left ubisoft like 10 years ago

Does ubisoft not think at this point they may aswel male.a new Prince of persia game.

Its only a remake.

Its like was skull and bones even worth it?

Let alone a remake of a game which was good but not that amazing its going to smash everything in its path. Prince of persia wasn't even that big of a series in the firdt place.

I think I can give Ubisoft credit?
They are at least giving studios outside the usual hubs a chance to grow gaming development in different markets.

Boy it hasn't gone well though....

A more realistic approach? Well, colour me uninsterested then.

I liked the original so I'm interested.

Ubisoft gets a lot of hate too, but I actually find them to be one of my favourite publishers/set of developers.

They don't do 10/10 classics, but good solid 8/10's that deliver VFM.

Also I just sold my XSX to get a PS Portal. Unfortunately I'd put dozens of hours each into games like Valhalla and Mirage and I feared that progress was lost.

I bought them again on PS5, and to my surprise my save-games transferred over from Xbox!

Sorry but I'm going to give them a load of respect for that alone.

i mean... at this point ubisoft is going to have to charge $150 for this game if they hope to turn a profit.

Shows they are still trying which is a sign besides the smaller ones to get the IP some support. I didn't care for a Metroidvania

Playing Fenix is fine but I mean it's a less tedious Ubisoft open world so I'm enjoying it. Then again avoiding Ubisoft's online services to play Fenix. Might do the same with the demo for the Metroidvania out of curiosity but not that into it. Played other Metroidvanias and aren't my thing.

I did buy up Two Thrones PS2 and Forgotten Sands Wii (absolutely love it near the end or 3/4 mark) haven't seen a copy of the 1st & 3rd in the trilogy yet.

I'm interested in this remake but depends how it goes.

I bought up Red Steel 1 & 2, and have more interest in their older games then current ones so Prince of Persia Sands of Time remake will do it hopefully.
