Ubisoft’s decision to delayAssassin’s Creed: Shadowsto June 04, 2025, has given the community time to think about the future of the beloved franchise. As fans eagerly wait for the next chapter in theAssassin’s Creedsaga, there is a golden opportunity for the studio to take the series in a bold yet nostalgic direction. It can intertwine the franchise with one of its predecessors,Prince of Persiawhile paying tribute to its legacy.
This isn’t just about invoking nostalgia in players. By incorporating elements from PoP such as its iconic parkour mechanics, deadly environmental traps, and time-altering themes, the studio has a chance to breathe new life into both franchises. The result could be something fresh and exciting, all while ensuring that the very essence of PoP’s distinctive gameplay lives on throughAssassin’s Creed.
Why Ubisoft Should FusePrince of PersiawithAssassin’s Creed
Ubisoft has long used theAssassin’s Creedfranchise as a platform for innovation, with each installment bringing new mechanics and settings to keep the gameplay fresh. The franchise has taken players from the ancient streets of Rome to the lively markets of Baghdad, each installment immersing players in a meticulously crafted world that feels alive and dynamic.
By fusingPrince of PersiawithAssassin’s Creed, the studio has the opportunity to take players back to the heart of the Persian Empire. This way it will not only honor the legacy of the beloved franchise but also unlock a wealth of possibilities for storytelling, world-building, and gameplay.

The historical richness of Persia, with its beautiful cities, vast deserts, and towering palaces, would provide an excellent backdrop for an epicACadventure. However, it’s not just the setting that makes this fusion exciting; it’s also the gameplay potential. First and foremost, parkour.
ThePoPgames were built on their fluid, dynamic parkour mechanics, which allowed players to leap, wall-run, and navigate through complex environments in the blink of an eye. While these mechanics were the foundation for Assassin’s Creed’s signature movement system, there’s still room for improvement.
However, the next installment should fully embrace the essence ofPoPand introduce new layers of complexity to the parkour system. If the game is set in Ancient Persia, there will always be elaborate palaces, labyrinthine temples, and ancient citadels for players to scale and test these mechanics on.

Beyond movement, these grand structures should be filled with hidden traps and environmental puzzles. These challenges would encourage players to stay alert, think on their feet, and explore the environment in greater depth. In doing so, players would not only engage with the revamped parkour system but also immerse themselves in a world that feels truly reactive to their actions.
Why it Matters to Revive the Prince of Persia Legacy
ThePrince of Persiafranchise deserves more than to fade into obscurity. While a recent attempt at reviving the series emerged with a platform-based title, it failed to capture the magic of its predecessors, and the development team behind it was ultimately disbanded. For many,PoPwas the stepping stone toAssassin’s Creed, and its influence is still present.
Ubisoft is in a very tough spot right now.Assassin’s Creed: Shadows, even before its release, has been met with various controversy, and fans have been expressing growing frustration with the direction the series has taken in recent years.

By fusing the beloved (also cursed) franchise intoAssassin’s Creed, Ubisoft has an opportunity to not only reinvigorate its iconic legacy but also renew hope amongPoPfans who have longed for a proper revival.
As the release date forShadowscomes close (February 11th), players are watching closely to see how the studio will move forward with the series. Even though the franchise is covered in controversies right now, it has delivered some of the best gaming experiences with a few of its installments as well so players don’t want to see it stagnate or fade into irrelevance.
In the end,while this is just a hopeful vision that imagines both franchises making a spectacular return, the studio needs to take decisive action. It needs to make the right choices, starting with a fresh, bold direction that honors its legacy and gives players something to look forward to once again.
