Meanwhile, in today’s financial report, Ubisoft confirms that the remake is among several games that are targeting 2022-23. The other games are the guitar education toolRocksmith+and spin-off shooterTom Clancy’s The Division Heartland. Also, while Ubisoft still expectsRoller Championsto launch in the current fiscal year, it is no longer factoring the game into its guidance. Take that as you will?
The remake of the classicPrince of Persia: The Sands of Timehas drifted around for some time. At one point itwas locked in for launch this past January, only for it toslip again.
Considering that the remake has garnered some mixed reactions, giving the team some extra time seems like a good thing. There are several Ubisoft games drifting around at this point though, includingBeyond Good & Evil 2and the tumultuous development of pirate simSkull & Bones.
Hopefully, the extra time can helpPrince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remakeget right back on track. Or at least avoid the weird void thatRoller Championsnow occupies.
