Almost a decade after its last appearance on home consoles, Ubisoft's much-loved Prince of Persia series is being revived. You'll probably want to keep your expectations in check, however; it's returning in the form of a virtual reality room escape game.
Those familiar with Ubisoft's activities away from consoles will likely already be familiar with the concept. The publisher has released two other room-scale VR room escape games to date - designed to be played by teams of participants at dedicated, specially equipped venues - both themed around the Assassin's Creed series.
Ubisoft's first Prince of Persia VR room escape offering, subtitled The Dagger of Time, tasks players with reaching the Hourglass Chamber of the mysterious Fortress of Time (last seen in 2004's Warrior Within) at the behest of Kaileena, the Empress of Time. There's an evil Magi to be stopped, and an army of sand monsters to thwart along the way.
