While he has a companion in The Sands of Time, he is portrayed in The Forgotten Sands as trying to distance himself from that after those events. He was also set to suffer hardships that would begin his change into what he appeared as in Warrior Within. According to Young, the Prince does still have aspects of his younger self, but is wiser from his experiences during The Sands of Time and is wary of the weight of magic on its wielders. For The Forgotten Sands, he was given a personality much like that present in The Sands of Time.


For The Two Thrones, the developers played on previous themes of duality when creating both the Prince and his abilities. This was partly due to Mallet not liking the ending of The Sands of Time, in which the Prince undid everything and consequently went unpunished for his actions. For Warrior Within, the Prince was turned into a darker, more callous character who had to face the consequences of his actions. Ceri Young, writer of The Forgotten Sands, described this young Prince as "arrogant and power". Mechner described the Prince as he is portrayed during the opening of The Sands of Time as " daredevil who races ahead of the attacking army in order to gain "honor and glory" by being the first to steal a valuable trophy of war". The version of the Prince that has gone through the most development is the character from The Sands of Time and its sequels. So there are as many stories of the Prince as there are many versions of the Prince himself – they all co-exist, they all share prodigious abilities and a liking for dauntless adventures and trouble." Possibilities for enticing storylines and characters are endless with such a rich, colorful, shape shifting and magical universe.

Most incarnations of the Prince have been of a royal line, although in the original games the character was initially unaware of this. The Prince represents multiple characters across a number of different settings, but all these characters share general traits. The reboot Prince's portrayal has also divided public opinion, while Gyllenhaal's portrayal in film has drawn mixed opinions from critics. The original Prince has been seen as a breakthrough in gameplay design, while his appearances in The Sands of Time have varied, with particular criticism being laid against his dark portrayal in Warrior Within. While public and critical opinion of individual Princes has varied, the character in general has been positively received.
