It has been a while since we have seen a new Prince of Persia game, HD remakes not included, so could there be a new title in the works? Well that seems to be what French website Le Portail du Jeu Video is reporting. According to them, it seems that a new Prince of Persia title is in the works and it could be going back to its 2D roots, although thankfully with improved graphics.
Assuming that the rumors are true, this new Prince of Persia game could be taking advantage of the UbiArt engine that is used by both Rayman: Legends and the upcoming game, Child of Light. If this is true, we can only imagine that the game would look really good and would indeed be very reminiscent of how the game was back in the day of the Gameboy, except that it would have newer graphics that we can look at and appreciate.
By using this engine, it will also allow for character models to have every part of their body animated, which could add to a more dynamic game and immersive experience. Of course this is all a rumor for now, but at the same time we are not opposed to the idea. Could the game be announced in time for E3 2014 which is taking place in June?
We guess we will just have to wait and see, but until then, take it with a grain of salt, but what do you guys think? Are you digging the idea of a new Prince of Persia title powered by the UbiArt engine?
