Cloned animations/placing for a test video.

It was a joke.

[The Grim Heaper]

Yeah, my first thought was that it looked like an Assassin's Creed game. I'll keep an eye on it, if this is true.

[metalslimer]

DirectX 11 is perhaps a hint, although I suppose it could be the PC version. But if that was the case, that frame-rate is extremely low. Edit: Doh! Beaten!

Don't they develop these games on PC and downport to consoles?

[Hot Coldman]

Shadows are too perfect for console.

It's PoP the Movie, take 2! This time a CG animation. The Prince voiced by Michael Jai White

[kruis]

more like "Prince of Egypt"

Yep. The characters are wearing Egyptian clothes...

Low framerates in development aren't especially uncommon.

Left 4 Dead Linux started at 6 fps and got over a hundred by the end.

[MuddyDonut]

Will the platforming be challenging though?

[Acquiescence]

Looks exactly like the first Assassin's Creed.

Edit - I want a sequel to PoP 2008.

[Metalic]

It doesn't look impressive I must say. I wish they would let the series rest in piece. I mean how many times POP has to be rebooted? This is the third reboot already.

[chertipros]

Instead of rebooting PoP so often, why couldn't this just be a standalone game?

[Easy_D]

What makes you say that? There's nothing that looks particularly next-gen about it.

It's being rendered through DX11 man, what current gen PC version of an Ubi game does that?

[SafeinSound]

WHY

[Hindle]

Yet another God of War rip off. If they can make the platforming precision based and as challenging as the Sands of Time games then I may be interested.

I'd say it could be revealed at this years VGA's as well.

Well that is current rumor that I am hearing about the game.

[Ken]

I'm going back to the RE6 screens thread.

Also so many of the NPCs have the same face.

[Always-honest]

Well, maybe if they hire an artdirector, this could go places.

[Dennis]

Those are Egyptians.....

Low frame rates definitely aren't uncommon when you're porting to other platforms. ;)

[Hargenx]

Just make nice 1 vs 1(2 or 3) fight, no more than this...

Make awesome puzzle, and give us some nice adventure challenger!

Is all I want from PoP!

[Sojgat]

[goldenpp72]

I'm glad I abandoned this series, I didn't care for 2008, the forgotten sands game is shit, and if this is true, it looks like the most generic shit you could come up with for the series.

[Vulcano's assistant]

Those are Egyptians.....

The Prince travels the world

[aegies]

HAWX 2, though I believe your basic point is valid. For next gen, DX11 will be the baseline, not the bonus.

[Trick_GSF]

[Fabrik]

lol perfect! :-)

[GQman2121]

Will the platforming be challenging though?

Of course not. Those games don't exist anymore. Unless there are guns involved, you're not dying in a game or problem solving ever again. I'm playing Uncharted 3 right now, so I may be a bit bitter.

[Mr_Zombie]

4) Ubi was working on a new IP for next gend that would have been like God of War meets Shadow of the Colossus. I think they have decided to make it the POP 2 remake.

Why? :(
Why can't they return to the glorious days of the Sands of Time, where platforming was the meat of the game?

[Meelow]

[XANDER CAGE]

Is this what that pre-E3 leak was originally supposed to tease? The one with the big dude in the shadows and the bow?

[Zapages]

It was just going to be trailer... This was revealed to me this morning... I did not want to post it back then... But someone on the official forums posted the same thing with the POP 2 Zero on it... Originally, I saw it without those written on it...

Maybe Ubi is just pulling our legs to build hype for the game. *shrugs*

[miladesn]

these seem related now.

Someone sent this to me on Twitter, not sure what it could be.

[Mad Pierrot]

Not like this.

Please.

[dragonelite]

Shame this is not Assassin creed:Egypt i liked the concept art showed for it from ubisoft workshop.

[Derrick01]

Will the platforming be challenging though?

Well it doesn't look like a 2008 sequel so there's a chance it will be!

[toadster101]

Assassin's Creed 4 confirmed.

[curttard]

No more real Prince of Persia, no more real Tomb Raider...next gen is going to rule.

[Inorigo]

Prince of Egypt.

It has a ring to it.

[gdt]

Egh. Egh. Egh.

Egh.

[Ushojax]

Yuck. That is all.

[StuBurns]

I certainly believe it, looks like the engine from the BG&E2 leak.

[DieH@rd]

these seem related now.

Well those ppl in the background can be Egyptians, and the basic shape of that main character looks like that black dude from the screenshot.

[metalslimer]

Well it doesn't look like a 2008 sequel so there's a chance it will be!

Chances are it will be like the crypts in the AC games and not challenging at all with a bunch of auto platforming and no consequences.

[ironcreed]

*Scratches head in confusion* Why not just go back and make something from the trilogy that made the series so popular to begin with? At least just start a new trilogy with a new Prince, but with the same core design philosophy taken to new heights. If it's not broke and has proven itself to work, why try and force something else? Don't take away what was loved.

Of course I know nothing about it, but this screen is obviously not inspired by the trilogy in terms of environment or characters. And I would wager to say the gameplay is nothing like the trilogy either. Why not just call it something like, 'Wrath of the Fallen Egyptian' and call it a day, lol?

[Mr_Zombie]

Prince of Egypt. It has a ring to it.

The tag ("Judgment is coming") fits too ;)

[Sn4ke_911]

these seem related now.

I think some Gaffer already said it's not from a new PoP game.

[echothreealpha]

Dear UbiSoft.

The amazing cel-shading and concept of Prince of Persia was NOT the reason the game tanked.

It was most probably the boring pacing/dull gameplay/nearly no punishment for failure that did that.

XOXO

[KillerTravis]

Seems more realistic.

[Nirolak]

I think some Gaffer already said it's not from a new PoP game.

Well, that doesn't necessarily conflict with the story in the OP, that this was at one point a new IP that was turned into Prince of Persia.

I mean the guy in the CG is wearing the same outfit on his shoulders and the screenshot says POP_ZERO_2.

[TucoBenedictoPacifico]

Why? :( Why can't they return to the glorious days of the Sands of Time, where platforming was the meat of the game?

Because when you press a button, something awesome has to happen.

[SJRB]

A new Ubi project always gets me excited.

People seem awfully quick to judge in here. Writing off an entire game based on one pre-alpha build screenshot is pretty silly.
