Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is one of the best games of 2024, and with the recently released DLC, we thought it would just keep getting better. Sadly, a new report suggests that the team behind the excellent Metroidvania game has been disbanded by Ubisoft, and the sequel has been rejected.
According to a French gaming journalist Gautos on Origami channel on YouTube (and Summarized by ResetEra user Arubedo), Ubisoft outlined the game’s future a few weeks after the game’s launch in January 2024. The company explained to the Ubisoft Montpellier team that after all cosmetics and downloadable content are out, “this will be the end.”
Not only that, Gautoz also claims that members of the development team presented a sequel, but Ubisoft did not give the green light for it. After that, the team tried to get two expansions, but these were also rejected on the grounds that “Ubisoft needs more manpower to help with other projects that have better sales potential” and that a sequel would actually hurt The Lost’s sales in the long run. crown.
Although this is currently just a rumor, Ubisoft is not completely out of the news regarding the disappointing results. Two weeks ago, Bloomberg reported that the company may be looking to go private as the brand loses more than half its market value in 2024. Star Wars Outlaws It performed poorly, and Shadows of Assassin’s Creed Recently postponed, with Early access has also been cancelled.
However, we were still upset to hear that the team – which also worked on Rayman Origins and Rayman Legends – has disbanded. We would have loved to see a sequel to the game, but hopes for that, and perhaps even a new Rayman game, seem like a pipe dream…
