A Prince of Persia Remake listing has appeared online at Guatemala retailer MAX for the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 with a November 2020 release window. MAX is an official Nintendo distributor in the country. 

Bloomberg News video game reporter Jason Schreier practically confirmed the listing is real on Twitter by saying "video game retailers sure love leaking Ubisoft's surprise announcements."

Prince of Persia is a series of action-adventure games that started with the original getting a launch in 1989. Prince of Persia: Escape was the last release in the series with a 2018 release for iOS and Android. 

Thanks, Reddit.

Is it strange that I can't tell which game is getting remade. Do you have any idea how little this narrows things down. There are quite a few games called Prince of Persia.

My favorite is the 1989 version. I played that in black-and-white back in the day.

I really liked gen 6 PoP, but let`s see how this will do because the latest ones were very bad.

I only enjoyed the first one. The rest weren't that good and the rock music in the second one might be some of the worst track music during a game I've ever heard..

Well, for me it's one of the best soundtracks I have ever heard, so each to its own :-)

Not even Xbox sold well at that time.

I was joking about Xbox not having that many sales in that gen. About the games sales we really don't know how thrustworthy those numbers are since tracking for gen 6 wasn't really an ongoing thing that we matched with other sources all the time. But anyway, yes there is no reason for the remake to not be on Xbox Series. If it was exclusive to PS because of some deal I could understand, but since it is going to Switch I don't think that is the case.

Got it. The image used in the article is from the 2008 gen 7 reboot-reboot, that came after the gen 6 reboot trilogy, but before the 2010 gen 7 re-remake reboot-reboot.
