Hello guys, this is Sourav, and it is yet another summer! Remember those days when we just plugged in our retro consoles and played classic games all day? An essential part of all of this was Prince of Persia!
But, nobody remembers it now, so what happened to it? Lets dive into todays detailed analysis of Prince of Persia!
CHAPTER 1: The Birth of Prince of Persia (1989-1999)
Back in 1989, Jordan Mechner revolutionized gaming with Prince of Persia, a cinematic platformer featuring fluid animation and intense sword fights. The series evolved with Prince of Persia 2 and 3D, but true success was yet to come.
CHAPTER 2: The Sands of Time Era (2003-2008)
Ubisoft reinvented the series with Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, bringing parkour, time manipulation, and deep storytelling. It spawned sequels like Warrior Within and Two Thrones, cementing its legacy.
CHAPTER 3: The Forgotten Prince (2010-2015)
After a 2008 reboot and The Forgotten Sands (2010), the franchise faded. Assassin’s Creed took its place, and Prince of Persia was left in limbo. Fans waited, but Ubisoft had other priorities.
CHAPTER 4: Failed Revival Attempts (2016-2023)
There were rumors of a return, but nothing concrete. The Sands of Time Remake (2020) was announced—then delayed indefinitely. Ubisoft seemed lost, unable to bring back the magic.
CHAPTER 5: Can Prince of Persia Make a Comeback? (2024 & Beyond!)
YES! Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown (2024) is set to revive the series with Metroidvania gameplay. But fans still want a full-scale AAA game like the Sands of Time trilogy. Will Ubisoft listen?
