Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Remake Gets a New Trailer


While Ubisoft has basically remade the Prince of Persia franchise with Assassin's Creed, rumblings have been going around that there are plans to bring back the classic title. Just in, we have a new announce trailer for the Prince of Persia: Sands of Time remake, and it looks like we won't have to wait too long to get our hands on the game.

Here's the tagline: Experience the classic tale that redefined action-adventure gaming in The Sands of Time Remake, the first full-scale remake of Prince of Persia by Ubisoft.

The original Prince of Persia: Sands of Time had come out back in 2003 for the PS2 and Xbox and was one of the most highly regarded games of the time. Prince of Persia was able to get a number of sequels and even a live-action movie adaptation starring Jake Gyllenhaal back in 2010; it wasn't that well-received, but it is a testament to how popular the Prince of Persia franchise was.

Looking at early reactions for this game, a lot of people aren't too pleased with the ‘upgraded' graphics, saying this game looks like it should have come out in 2010. With Resident Evil and Final Fantasy VII remakes setting the bar ridiculously high, I think some fans expected something more from one of Ubisoft's classic titles.

Who knows, maybe this remake will open doors for a full-on reboot of the franchise? I guess they're just trying to find a way to get more people into the game for now.

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake is set to come out Jan. 21, 2021.
