Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake will launch 'very soon,' Ubisoft exec says, but he also namedropped Splinter Cell for no apparent reason so maybe he's still just messing with us

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake.

It's been five years since the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake first leaked out of the Russian Uplay store, and while plenty has happened since then, one thing that definitely has not happened is the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake. It's basically Skull and Bones redux: Repeated delays, a studio change, a whole-ass reboot, more delays, more studios, and most recently a very funny social media mishap that prompted a promise that Ubisoft is indeed still working on the game, "behind the scenes."

I would be remiss if I didn't also point out that it's been four years since Ubisoft announced a full remake of the original Splinter Cell, which has somehow made even less progress: When last we checked, Ubisoft celebrated 10 years of viciously trolling Splinter Cell fans by mixing up images of Sam Fisher.
