Prince of Persia: Lost Crown is coming to iOS and Android next month

In recent years, mobile gamers have increasingly enjoyed titles that were once exclusive to larger platforms. A perfect example is the upcoming release of Prince of Persia: Lost Crown, a 2.5D platformer set to launch on iOS and Android on April 14th. This game arrives at a tumultuous time for Ubisoft but manages to stand out with its engaging Metroidvania-style action.

Set within a mythological Persian-inspired world, Prince of Persia: Lost Crown is the latest reboot of the iconic platformer series. Players take on the role of the fearless hero Sargon, who embarks on a quest to rescue Prince Ghassan across the mystical Mount Qaf.

Like previous attempts to revive the classic series, Prince of Persia: Lost Crown emphasizes parkour-style platforming, enhanced with intense hack 'n slash combat. Players will string together combos and utilize time-altering powers to overcome formidable foes.

Prince of Persia: Lost Crown will also introduce a try-before-you-buy model. This feature allows players to sample the game before committing to purchase, ensuring they can fully experience it before unlocking the complete version.

When Prince of Persia: Lost Crown was initially released, some criticized its 2.5D platforming as outdated, especially when compared to more modern, visually stunning releases. However, on mobile devices, this detailed and immersive experience is likely to attract a keen audience eager for such a rich gaming experience.
