According to multiple sources at Ubisoft India (both Pune and Mumbai studios), there was not much in way of support from Ubisoft itself. All of them requested anonymity for fear of retribution. These include:
Little to no documentation: was given to the team in India. Granted the original game design document for Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time wasn't more than 10 pages, you'd think any material regarding the original release or its sequels would be shared. But this was not the case. This led to designers having to figure out how to make the game and its levels from scratch with little guidance.
Anvil Engine: furthermore, the team was forced to use Ubisoft's Anvil Engine, that too a version based on Assassin's Creed Origins, with management forcing them to retrofit the animations of the Prince — a lean, lanky character — on an animation rig meant for Assassin's Creed Origins protagonist Bayek who has a stockier, heavyset frame. This is why the initial reveal had janky, odd animations those familiar with the project tell me.
Inexperienced leadership: prior to helming Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake, its game director had no game development experience. He moved to the team working on Riders Republic shortly after the game was handed over to outsourcing specialist Electric Square last year. Speaking of which…
Getting it outsourced: following the poor reception to the game's initial reveal, the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake was handed over to Electric Square to take it over the finish line. However it wasn't able to do much with what it had in the time Ubisoft wanted it so Ubisoft handed it back to Ubisoft Montreal.
