Ubisoft has disbanded the team behind Prince of Persia The Lost Crown. Game did not reach expectations and sequel was refused.

This is all your faults


This comes from the reliable french game journalist "Gautoz" who heard from multiple devs at Ubisoft Montpellier the news.

Internally, the fate of the game was already decided a few weeks after the release of the game, it was clear in Spring that after releasing a few DLCs and Cosmetics it would be the end.

A few members of the core dev team fought to get a sequel greenlit which did not happen, then they pushed for two expansions hoping that it would work this time but it didn't since Ubisoft needed more hands to help on other projects that had a better sales potential which wasn't the case with Lost Crown not meeting sales expectations.

Another crazy justification that the dev team received from higher-ups was that releasing a sequel for the game would cannibalize long term sales of the first game.

It’s literally the best game this company has put out in years.

It’s why this bullshyt about AA games saving the industry is exactly that, bullshyt. No one buys these AA games, even for reduced prices and even when they review well.

Does this game end on a cliffhanger? If so , I had been meaning to get to this eventually

Right. I love plenty of them, but definitely not at the expense or replacement of proper AAA games. I buy them all tho, day 1 at that, and generally beat them in decent time too, so I do my fukking part. Much more than I can say for some cheapos out there waiting for these shyts to hit "free services" just so they can have analysis paralysis and not even play them at all.

GARBAGE ass company.

Sure disband the team who actually made your most interesting game in the last decade. So make more Ass Creeds and Far Cry instead of investing in team that actually brings art and innovation.

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

At this point, Ubi should just focus on Rainbow Six and Ass Creed
