In a move that makes it seem as if Ubisoft are ignoring last year’s reinvention of the franchise, a new Sands of Time era Prince of Persia game has been announced for 2010. Looking like it will tie into the Jake Gyllenhaal Sands of Time movie, the game is said to feature ‘fan-favourite’ elements from the [...]
