Heads up, y'all, we've got another one. The Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake has been delayed for the second time, with no new date in sight. The game was previously scheduled for release March 18, and before that for Jan. 21.

"We understand the update might come as a surprise and we will continue to keep you posted on the progress of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake," Ubisoft wrote in its announcement. "In the meantime, we want to thank you all for your ongoing support."

Ubisoft says the extra time will "enable our teams to deliver a remake that feels fresh while remaining faithful to the original."

Ubisoft revealed Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake and its January release date in a Ubisoft Forward broadcast in September. The game's existence had already leaked online.

The lack of a new release date suggests the problems with the remake are deeper than simple surface polish, but it's hard to know without information from the developers on the team. At any rate, it's unlikely we'll get our hands on the remake any time soon.
