Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown’s developers got done dirty. The side-scrolling Metroidvania introduction into the 36-year-old bid sold an bonzer 1.3 cardinal copies, and yet contempt this, Eurogamer reported past twelvemonth that the interior squad astatine Ubisoft Montpellier that had created the crippled had been disbanded and moved onto different projects.

“You’ve revived the legend,” a station connected Ubisoft’s societal media reads. “The Prince is back, and judge america - he’s conscionable warming up.”

It’s worthy noting that “2 cardinal players” is not the aforesaid arsenic 2 cardinal copies sold. As Eurogamer points out, the crippled has received a 2nd question of attraction aft being added to PS Plus and coming retired connected mobile. But it’s inactive an atrocious batch of attraction for a crippled that Ubisoft had appeared to dainty similar a flop pursuing its 2024 release.

However, today’s station is alternatively unambiguously stating that there’s much Prince of Persia to come, astatine the precise least. Of course, we already cognize that determination is simply a long-struggling effort to remake 2003's fantastic The Sands of Time, but fixed its endless delays and disasters (it was last projected to look successful 2026, but that seems unlikely), that’s astir apt not what this is referring to. We besides cognize that Dead Cells developer Evil Empire is inactive moving connected The Rogue Prince of Persia, released into Early Access astir a twelvemonth ago. So it wouldn’t beryllium that. Put it this way: If it’s not meant to archer america determination are plans for a sequel to The Lost Crown, past someone’s fucked up.

We’ve reached retired to Ubisoft, asking them to astatine slightest archer america not to get our hopes up if this is not the case, and volition update erstwhile they get backmost to us.
