Ubisoft just cannot seem to keep a lid on its announcements, and today we've got another leak. This time, it's for Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake, the existence of which had already leaked, but now we've got some slightly goofy screenshots.

The leak comes from the Russian Uplay store, which started advertising the remake with some banners a little bit early (cheers, ResetEra). Check them out below.

The reactions so far haven't been exactly positive, and watching the animated banner in motion doesn't really improve it. Refreshing my memory by looking at old screenshots makes it clear that Ubisoft have made some big changes to the aesthetic, which was a lot more stylised back in 2003, and despite the much lower level of detail it's actually aged very well.

Some menu art has also appeared on Reddit, and it's both a bit easier on the eyes and more in keeping with the original style.

We'll likely see more tonight during the latest Ubisoft Forward showcase, which begins at 8 pm BST/12 pm PDT.

With over a decade of experience, he's been around the block a few times, serving as a freelancer, news editor and prolific reviewer. Strategy games have been a 30-year-long obsession, from tiny RTSs to sprawling political sims, and he never turns down the chance to rave about Total War or Crusader Kings. He's also been known to set up shop in the latest MMO and likes to wind down with an endlessly deep, systemic RPG. These days, when he's not editing, he can usually be found writing features that are 1,000 words too long or talking about his dog.
