The Rogue Prince of Persia is exactly what it sounds like. A roguelite genre adventure set in the Prince of Persia franchise is enough to get the attention of both sets of fans. Even more exciting is the studio behind the project: Evil Empire. Best known for its work on Dead Cells, Evil Empire understands what makes a modern roguelite tick. Get ready for buttery smooth level design, intricate loadout strategies, and lots and lots of sudden death.
In June, Ubisoft noted that the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake is set to launch by March 31--the end of the company's current fiscal year. That was the second time Ubisoft stuck to that release timeline, too. However, it's been a bumpy road for the game since being announced in 2020. For instance, in 2022, the Prince of Persia remake switched developers to Ubisoft Montreal, the original team behind the Sands of Time series.
The Rogue Prince of Persia is coming to Switch and Switch 2 consoles on December 16. The game was in early access for around a year before being officially released for PC and consoles back in August. This version has been "optimized for handheld and hybrid play" and includes all content from the original release. That means players will be able access a wide variety of biomes, weapons and secrets.
