Prince of Persia The Sands of Time Remake on PS5 and Xbox Series X with free upgrade?
There is a lot of distrust towards Prince of Persia The Sands of Time Remake: despite having been clamoring for it for a long time, on the occasion of the presentation at the Ubisoft Forward last September, the players were dissatisfied with the graphic rendering , in their opinion unable to enhance the classic.

Other criticisms have been directed at Ubisoft's strategy, which at the dawn of the new generation has chosen to announce it only for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. In any case, it seems that the French house is taking advantage of the complaints: first of all, it has decided to postpone the release date of Prince of Persia The Sands of Time Remake by two months, from January 21 to March 18 2021. The additional time will be used to better refine the product and present it to the players in the best possible way. In addition, a clue unearthed on the Ubisoft Store suggests that the PS5 and Xbox Series X versions have also been put in the pipeline: on the product page on the US store it clearly reads "Buy Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake on PlayStation 4 or Xbox One and upgrade the game to the next-gen version (PS5 or Xbox Series X) for free at no additional cost. " We are therefore talking about a real graphic update, and not simple backwards compatibility, designed to take advantage of the advanced features of next-gen consoles and similar in ambitions to those that the French company has reserved for Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Watch Dogs Legion and Immortals Fenyx Rising.

Ubisoft has not yet made an announcement about it, but since the news comes from its official store, it seems to be (almost) done. The same store, among other things, also unveils the Switch version of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake, which has not yet become the subject of an official announcement.
