The saga that defined an era could be preparing its most imminent return than anyone expected. Over the last few days, several hints have emerged that fit together too well: internal movements, public confirmations of recent leaks, and the presence of the title in key conversations within the community. All of this has raised the feeling that the expected remake is practically ready to reappear.

The mix now adds new information that has ended up fueling the atmosphere. A specific date, a perfect window, and a context that fits with the usual calendar of major year-end announcements. Ubisoft, for its part, remains silent, something that only fuels the idea that there is very little left before everything becomes clear.

A leaked launch for January and an announcement that points to The Game Awards

According to the renowned Tom Henderson, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake is scheduled for January 16, 2026, a date much closer than suggested by the project’s recent delays. The information comes from several recent publications by the insider, who claims to have been able to verify the data.

Henderson himself states that the official revelation could take place at The Game Awards 2025, where Ubisoft would show the new visual approach of the game for the first time. After the initial criticism of its first presentation, the project would have gone through a deep review phase that would have redefined the artistic and technical aspects. The trailer accompanying the announcement would serve to show that visual leap and, presumably, would also confirm the announced release date.
