The highly anticipated *Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown* has officially made its way to Android devices. Initially launched on PC in January 2024 by Ubisoft, this metroidvania action game introduces players to the adventures of Sargon, a young warrior from 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 the enigmatic Mount Qaf, once a divine city but now a treacherous landscape teeming with time-warped creatures and cursed terrain. Despite being a single mountain, Mount Qaf offers diverse environments ranging from a ruined temple to a forgotten desert. The map, while vast, is cleverly interconnected, allowing you to take photos of your surroundings to navigate more effectively.
The game introduces innovative mechanics such as the ability to drop a shadow and teleport back to it at will, enhancing both platforming and combat dynamics. Scattered across the map, amulets allow you to customize Sargon's abilities. Sargon also boasts powerful ultimate moves known as Athra Surges, perfect for finishing off foes. Additional quests enrich the backstory of Mount Qaf and provide numerous collectibles and challenges to engage with. Be sure to check out the trailer below to see the game in action.
