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

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

Here’s the Story

Your journey begins with a mission from Queen Thomyris to rescue her son, Prince Ghassan. This quest leads you to Mount Qaf, a once divine city now overrun with time-warped creatures and cursed landscapes. Despite being a single mountain, Mount Qaf is teeming with diverse environments, from a ruined temple to a forgotten desert. The expansive yet interconnected map even allows you to snap photos of your surroundings, enhancing your exploration experience.

One of the game's standout features is the ability to drop a shadow and teleport back to it at will, adding a layer of dynamic gameplay to both platforming and combat. Scattered throughout the map are amulets that allow you to customize Sargon’s abilities, tailoring your playstyle to your preference.

Sargon’s ultimate moves, known as Athra Surges, offer a thrilling way to conclude battles. Additionally, side quests enrich the lore of Mount Qaf and provide numerous collectibles and challenges to keep you engaged. For a sneak peek, check out the trailer below.
