Ubisoft Toronto has cut staff after starting work on the remake of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
Ubisoft went through another wave of layoffs — this time the Canadian department was purged, losing 33 employees. Most recently, Ubisoft Toronto joined the team for the remake of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time.
In a conversation with PC Gamer, a company representative called the layoffs a necessary measure:
Ubisoft Toronto has decided to conduct a targeted realignment to ensure it can deliver on its ambitious roadmap. Unfortunately, this will impact the roles of 33 team members who will be leaving Ubisoft.
Let us remember that in early June the Canadian department was involved in the development of a remake of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, which is already being handled by Ubisoft Montreal. Apparently, the new team members were supposed to take care of the technical part.
The release of the Prince of Persia remake is scheduled for 2026 for the PC, Xbox Series X/S and PS5 platforms. The first details of the project have recently appeared.
