In recent years, we've increasingly seen top-tier gaming experiences making their way onto mobile devices, and the upcoming release of Prince of Persia: Lost Crown is a perfect example. Set to launch on iOS and Android on April 14th, this 2.5D platformer arrives during a turbulent period for Ubisoft but promises to stand out with its engaging Metroidvania-style action.
Set in a richly detailed, mythological Persian-inspired world, Prince of Persia: Lost Crown marks the latest reboot in the iconic platformer series. Players will step into the shoes of the fearless hero Sargon, embarking on a thrilling quest to rescue Prince Ghassan on the mythical Mount Qaf.
This latest installment builds on the series' storied tradition of parkour-style platforming, enhanced with intense hack 'n slash combat. Players will weave together complex combos and harness time-altering powers to conquer formidable foes, offering a fresh yet nostalgic experience for fans of the franchise.
Crowned with a try-before-you-buy model, Prince of Persia: Lost Crown allows players to dive in and sample the game before deciding to purchase the full experience. This approach is particularly appealing for those who might be hesitant about the game's 2.5D platforming, which some have criticized as outdated compared to more modern, cutting-edge releases. However, on mobile devices, this fully fleshed-out experience is likely to resonate well with eager audiences.
