After a couple of delays, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake was left without a release date, but that may soon be set to change. The appearance of the Prince of Persia The Sands of Time Remake trophy list on Exophase suggests that we’re now likely to see a release sooner rather than later.
The trophies themselves don’t drop any surprises. There are story-based trophies, those for completing certain actions, and some for taking the time to search out some of the game’s secrets. Perhaps most importantly, the game includes a Platinum. The full list of 25 trophies can be found below:

Originally due to be released in January, the game’s first delay saw it pushed back to this month, before another delay saw it moved to an unspecified release date. The reason for the delay was so the team could “deliver a remake that feels fresh while remaining faithful to the original.” This is likely a response to the lackluster reception Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake received upon its reveal, with many players complaining the graphics looked dated. Ubisoft India stated the style of graphics was a deliberate choice and they wanted to give the game a “unique visual treatment” different to other Ubisoft titles like Assassin’s Creed. Whether the graphics have received a bit more love and attention remains to be seen.
Hopefully Ubisoft will announce a new release date soon, but the arrival of the trophies suggests the game is fairly close to release. Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake will be released on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. Those who purchase it on PS4 will be entitled to a free new-gen upgrade.
