Gaming Experience
The experience of Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is a departure from what fans might expect from the series, offering a fresh take on the classic formula. The game is developed by the team behind the acclaimed Rayman Legends, who have spent four years crafting this title. The result is a beautiful 2.5D sidescroller that pays homage to the origins of Prince of Persia while charting a new path forward. Players can anticipate intricate puzzle platforming that requires both clever strategy and precise execution.
Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is set to release on January 18 and will be available on platforms such as Epic Games Store and the Ubisoft Store. This return to the side-scrolling roots of the franchise is eagerly awaited by fans and newcomers alike, promising a blend of nostalgia and innovation.
