As a long-time fan of the Prince of Persia series, hearing about the potential disbandment of The Lost Crown team was certainly a heartbreaker. I’ve been following this franchise since the early days, and The Lost Crown was a breath of fresh air, offering a unique twist on the Metroidvania genre that resonated deeply with both players and critics alike.
Story Highlights
- The recent rumor of the Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown team breaking up has caused quite a stir.
- Ubisoft has now spoken up about the incident, addressing the rumor and acknowledging the claim in PR terms.
- The company says it’s keen on creating more Prince of Persia experiences in the future.
Recently, there’s been talk about the internal disbandment of the Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown team, moving them away from the project’s future development. This news is truly disappointing, given the exceptional quality of the game and its outstanding design as a Metroidvania platformer, which seems unfair for such a promising title to meet this unfortunate end.
According to a conversation with Eurogamer, Ubisoft has reallocated the team from Ubisoft Montpellier who were working on The Lost Crown project to focus on other ventures, given their specific skills. Nevertheless, Ubisoft remains optimistic about future installments of the Prince of Persia series, suggesting that there may yet be more Prince of Persia games in store. This seems to counter any speculation that the Metroidvania-style game in question would never receive a sequel.
I’m deeply proud of the incredible work and passion our team at Ubisoft Montpellier has put into crafting a game that struck a chord with both players and critics. I have full faith in its lasting success. Many of the team members who worked on Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown have moved onto other projects, where their skills will undoubtedly prove valuable. We share the players’ affection for this brand, and Ubisoft is eager to deliver more thrilling Prince of Persia adventures in the time ahead.
Previously, reports suggested that insufficient sales might have led to our beloved team’s dissolution. However, Ubisoft hasn’t shared any insights about this matter yet, keeping us fans on our toes.
