  No, actually.
  
  The game is set between The Sands of Time and Warrior Within and has nothing to do with the movie other than sharing the release date to generate sales.

    They've also changed the prince to look more like Jake Gyllenhaal. At least he still looks all right.
    
    I hated how they changed 47 to look like that Timothy Olyphant guy in Blood Money. He looks totally retarded.
