The second Ubisoft Forward event is almost here and it promises to announce more games and updates. The previous event introduced us to some big announcements like Far Cry 6, Watch Dogs: Legion, and Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla’s Gameplay. But, the next event is rumored to unveil something the fans have waited for years.

Prince Of Persia coming to Ubisoft Forward

Video Game reporter for Bloomberg Jason Schrier recently spoke on a podcast about the recent gaming news. While discussing Ubisoft, he actually let slip that a Prince of Persia ‘remake’ will be announced at the next Ubisoft forward event. He said “…They(Ubisoft) had been planning, before any of this, a new Ubisoft Forward, where they were going to announce a bunch of games, like the Prince of Persia remake that was leaked a couple of weeks ago”

An important point to notice here is that he said ‘remake’ and not a new title. This could possibly be a remake of any of the previous PoP titles. The recent leaks he mentioned showed listings from a Guatemalan retailer for the title. Take a look at the following tweet to know more.

Upcoming Ubisoft Event to Announce Title Change for a Game?

Prince of Persia is a fan-favorite franchise

Back then, it was just a rumor. But given his latest comments, it is highly likely that a game will make an appearance at the Ubisoft Forward. This is great news for the fans. The last Prince of Persia game came out in 2015 that was Prince of Persia: Forgotten Sands. The game wasn’t as well-received as the original trilogy and didn’t perform well for Ubisoft.

But with this announcement, they have a good chance of reviving one of their best franchises. The original trilogy of Sands of Time, Warrior Within, and Two Thrones was absolutely phenomenal. Since these 3 were the most famous games, it is highly likely that one of these will be remade. Or if Ubisoft is feeling too generous, they might just give us a remake of all of them.

No matter what happens, this announcement will be cheered by fans all over the world. The Prince of Persia franchise holds a special place in the hearts of fans and it will be a great surprise for everyone.
