For weeks now we’ve been inundated with rumors that Ubisoft’s long-neglected Prince of Persia franchise was on the way back, which were seemingly confirmed by a leak on the Russian-language version of Uplay earlier this morning. Well, today at the latest Ubisoft Forward showcase it was made official – Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Remake is the real deal, and it’s coming this year! Check out the first trailer for Ubisoft’s reimaging of this classic, below!
The visuals don’t quite look up to the normal Ubisoft standard, but as long as the gameplay stands up, I’m happy. Hopefully this is the beginning of more remasters and remakes from Ubisoft’s classic catalog. Need to know more? Here re the game’s key features:
- A classic reborn – Experience the original epic tale of the Prince on his journey for redemption. Travel back in time with the return of the Prince’s original voice actor, Yuri Lowenthal, and discover a brave new Farah.
- Reimagined For Today – Fight new enemy character models and enjoy entirely new cinematic sequences along with enhanced voices, sounds, parkour animations, and soundtrack.
