Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, Award-Winning Metroidvania, Now on Mobile!

The highly anticipated Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown has now hit Android devices, following its initial launch on PC back in January 2024. Developed by Ubisoft, this metroidvania action game casts you as Sargon, a young warrior and member of the Immortals.

Here’s the Story

Your mission begins when Queen Thomyris enlists you and your squad to rescue her son, Prince Ghassan. This quest leads you to Mount Qaf, a once-divine city that has now transformed into a chaotic landscape filled with time-warped creatures and cursed terrain.

Mount Qaf, despite being a single mountain, is teeming with diverse environments including a ruined temple and a forgotten desert. The map is vast yet interconnected, and it even allows you to snap photos of your surroundings, enhancing exploration.

One of the standout features of Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is the ability to drop a shadow and teleport back to it at will, adding a dynamic twist to both platforming and combat. Scattered throughout the map are amulets that allow you to customize Sargon’s abilities, offering a personalized gameplay experience.

Sargon’s ultimate moves, known as Athra Surges, provide a thrilling way to conclude battles. Additionally, various quests enrich the backstory of Mount Qaf while offering numerous collectibles and challenges. Be sure to check out the trailer below to get a glimpse of the action:
