The mobile gaming scene is about to get a thrilling addition with the upcoming release of Prince of Persia: Lost Crown on April 14th for both iOS and Android devices. This 2.5D platformer arrives at a tumultuous time for Ubisoft but shines brightly with its Metroidvania-style action, making it a standout title.
Set in a richly detailed, mythological Persian-inspired world, Prince of Persia: Lost Crown is the latest reboot of the beloved platformer series. Players will step into the boots of the fearless hero Sargon, embarking on a quest to rescue Prince Ghassan across the mystical Mount Qaf.
This iteration of the series brings back the iconic parkour-style platforming but enhances it with intense hack 'n slash combat. Players will weave together combos and harness time-altering powers to confront formidable foes, making each encounter a test of skill and strategy.
Adding to its appeal, Prince of Persia: Lost Crown will launch with a try-before-you-buy option. This feature allows players to dive into the game and experience its mechanics firsthand before deciding to purchase the full version, catering to those who might be hesitant about committing to a new title.
While some critics felt the 2.5D platforming was a step back when Prince of Persia: Lost Crown was initially released, the mobile version promises to captivate a new audience. The fully fleshed-out experience on a smartphone could be the perfect fit for gamers looking for a rich, engaging adventure on the go.
