Prince of Persia: Lost Crown to Launch on iOS, Android Next Month

In the ever-evolving landscape of mobile gaming, we're increasingly seeing titles that once graced larger platforms now making their way to our smartphones. One such eagerly anticipated release is the 2.5D platformer, Prince of Persia: Lost Crown, set to launch on iOS and Android on April 14th. This latest installment in the iconic series promises to bring the thrill of Metroidvania-style action to mobile devices at a time when Ubisoft is navigating through its own set of challenges.

Set against a backdrop of a mythological Persian-inspired world, Prince of Persia: Lost Crown invites players to step into the shoes of the fearless hero, Sargon. Your mission? To rescue Prince Ghassan as you navigate the treacherous terrains of the mythical Mount Qaf. This reboot of the classic platformer series retains the signature parkour-style platforming while ramping up the excitement with intense hack 'n slash combat. Players will weave together combos and harness time-altering powers to vanquish formidable foes.

For those curious about the game, Prince of Persia: Lost Crown will launch with a try-before-you-buy model on both iOS and Android. This feature allows players to dive into the game and experience its offerings before deciding to purchase the full version, making it an attractive option for those who are hesitant about committing to a new title.

When Prince of Persia: Lost Crown was first released, some criticized its 2.5D platforming as outdated, especially when compared to the latest and most visually stunning games. However, on mobile devices, where screen size and processing power are considerations, this fully fleshed-out experience could resonate well with an audience eager for a rich gaming experience on the go.
