Ubisoft has unveiled the upcoming Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake, which is scheduled for release on January 21, 2001, on PS4, Xbox One, and PC.

Our current moment has seen a strange profusion of remakes—as though the past were a shimmering pool in the desert.
This one is more intriguing than most, given that we haven’t had a mainline Prince of Persia game since The Forgotten Sands, in 2010, and that Assassin’s Creed, which started life as a Prince of Persia game, has since soared into a blockbuster success.
The Sands of Time also enjoyed the distinction of being a brilliant game, influencing the free-form combat that would become commonplace in games like Assassin’s Creed and Batman: Arkham Aslyum, and the platforming in series like Tomb Raider and Uncharted.
