After its incredible success Prince of Persia and the Lost Crown, many are wondering what Ubisoft Montpellier’s next project will be. Although we don’t have an official answer yet, The developers responsible for this title have made it clear that they want to work on The Legend of Zelda game.
through a question and answer session Reddit, Christophe Peek, world director, and Rémy Boutin, senior game designer, were questioned about the possibility of working on other companies’ properties. Thus, Peake expressed his desire to create in a style similar to The Legend of Zelda games The Adventures of Link. Here is what he commented:
“Personally, I would love to work on the Zelda IP. Perhaps a weird spin-off based on Link’s adventures? (And of course Castlevania).”
Let us remember that Zelda II: The Adventures of Link It was the sequel to the original NES title, which presented us with a sidescroll style of gameplay and RPG elements that were not to the liking of all fans, but over the years it has gained a good fan base and one of them appears to be Christophe Peake. In that regard Prince of Persia and the Lost Crown This is a 2.5D Metroidvania, It would be interesting to see Ubisoft Montpellier take the reins of The Legend of Zelda on a project of this style.
While this may sound like a mere dream to many, it is a possibility. Let us remember that Ubisoft and Nintendo had a great relationship, with Ubisoft Milan being in charge of the Mario + Rabbids series. Thus, The possibility of the Montpellier division doing something with The Legend of Zelda in the future cannot be ruled out. Along with this, Big N has expressed interest in letting other companies use its properties.
We can only wait to see if Ubisoft Montpellier is likely to work with Nintendo on The Legend of Zelda spin-off, Something that would not be strange, since there is a precedent Cadence of Hyrule. On related topics, you can check our review Prince of Persia and the Lost Crown Here.
Editor’s note:
Ubisoft Montpellier working together with Nintendo would be a dream of many gamers. More than The Legend of Zelda, I’d love to see this studio in charge of a new 2D Mario. The studio has a mastery over the genre, and if only they were able to do something similar to what they presented to us Super Mario Bros. WonderWe will encounter one of the best titles in the genre.
