Have you beaten Mighty Switch Force! Hyper Drive Edition on the GamePad? Then you may have come across a bug that results in a black screen of… nothingness.
Thankfully, developer WayForward is on the case. The studio posted a new blog entry today confirming that a fix is on the way.
Ubisoft senior vice president of marketing and sales Tony Key has addressed one of the company’s critical brands: Prince of Persia.
There hasn’t been a brand new entry in the series since 2010’s Forgotten Sands, and that likely won’t be changing anytime soon given the lack of announcements. But Key wishes to assure fans that Prince of Persia maintains “a really strong legacy with Ubisoft”. For now, Key hopes that people can be patient.
He said:
“Prince of Persia, it’s got a really strong legacy with Ubisoft and it’s still there. We have nothing to announce, but, you know, we haven’t sold it off or given it away, so be patient. I know that’s hard!”
