The Lost Crown and its sequel have been canceled
Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown was released at the beginning of the year.
The fact that Ubisoft is not going through its best phase is no secret to anyone, since the company, regardless of whether it brings good or bad products to the market, He barely manages to sell video gamesthe most serious case being that of Star Wars: Outlaws, which was a huge failure despite being part of one of the most profitable franchises in history. For all these reasons, it is not surprising that rumors of a sale of the company are already starting to surface.
With this in mind, it looks like Ubisoft is going to go head to head with Assassin’s Creedwhich goes hand in hand with the fact that some statements and rumors suggest that there will be up to 10 Assassin’s Creed games in development over the next 5 years. This in itself is considered a bad idea in the medium to long term, since the saturation of the saga games may suppress players. However, the matter could be much more serious if Rumors about Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown are real.
Poor sales of Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown would have led to the cancellation of its sequel.
Counts as one of the best games of the year and Metroidvania that stood out among many others, a new statement from French journalist Gautoz on ResetEra confirms that Ubisoft would disband the game’s development teamUbisoft Montpellier because The game didn’t live up to sales expectations that the French company had with them, but has not yet been disclosed.
While this information has not been confirmed by Ubisoft as such, the situation will be made even worse when it is revealed that the team was trying to get the company’s approval for develop a sequelwhich has apparently been cancelled. So Ubisoft’s solution would be disband the team and transfer it to other projects with great sales potential.
As if all this weren’t enough, it was stated that from the top echelons of Ubisoft would be rejected a sequel because it would affect sales of Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown in the long term.
It remains to be seen whether this statement is true, but if it is true, it would be ironic that Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown receives an award at any future gala that will be held so that the team will not be able to come and pick it up for the simple reason that it no longer exists. Be that as it may, remember this Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is available for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC..
