Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Remake Delayed Again

A long-awaited remake of 2003’s influential Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time has been delayed once more, this time by several years.

Initially announced in September 2020 for a January 2021 release, Ubisoft put the brakes on the project after receiving negative fan feedback over its reveal trailer. However, the publisher later indefinitely postponed the remaster and switched studios from Ubisoft Mumbai and Pune to their Montreal branch, which reportedly rebuilt the game from scratch.

This change of direction suggests that Ubisoft is taking the remake seriously and not rushing it out for a quick profit. Although the release date has been pushed back to 2026, this extended timeline may ultimately result in a highly polished AAA remake worthy of the original’s reputation.
