Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is an action-adventure platformer game set in a mythological Persian world.

In this brand-new adventure, players will embody Sargon, a young, gifted warrior, member of an elite group called The Immortals. As they are sent to rescue Prince Ghassan, they will explore Mount Qaf, a once wondrous place, now cursed and hostile. Sargon and his brothers-in-arms will soon discover that time itself will be a treacherous foe and that the world balance must be restored.

Inspired by the Metroidvania structure, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown lets players explore a handcrafted world at their own pace. From the majestic Citadel of Knowledge to the colorful landscapes of the Hyrcanian Forest, players will discover a variety of environments inspired by Persian mythology. By acquiring new time powers, unlocking unique abilities and combining them in combat, Sargon will progressively delve deeper into Mount Qaf, solving puzzles, finding secrets, and completing exciting side quests.

Ubisoft detailed additional content coming for the critically acclaimed Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown in 2024, with the first content drop coming March 20.

New content will include multiple free updates inviting players to rediscover Mount Qaf with new modes, new challenges, and new outfits for Sargon.

Later this year, Ubisoft will also release a paid DLC providing multiple hours of content  including brand-new storyline, environments and enemies.

The first Title Update, called Warrior's Path, will be available on March 20 and will bring a Speedrun Mode, a Permadeath mode and four new outfits for Sargon. This content will be free for every player who already owns Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown and is only the first of a series.

The next updates, called Boss Attack and Divine Trials, will respectively include a Boss Rush Mode challenge and new outfits for Sargon, as well as new Combat, Platforming, and Puzzle Challenges with new Amulets and other surprises!

In this epic journey, Sargon will fight his way through mythical enemies, larger-than-life bosses, and vicious traps. By combining combat and platforming skills, players will defeat time-corrupted creatures such as Jahandar, the dreadful Manticore, guardian of the Citadel.  Players will be able to express their creativity in a deep and engaging combat system to trigger devastating combos.

While exploring this mythical place, players will be fully immersed thanks to the original soundtrack created by Mentrix. The Iranian-born composer mixes both traditional instruments and modern sounds to guide players from one environment to another. Mentrix will be joined by award-winning composer Gareth Coker bringing his own personal touch to convey the epic scale of the boss fights.

Prince Of Persia: The Lost Crown is available for Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One. Xbox Series X|S, Amazon Luna as well as PC (Epic Games Store and the Ubisoft Store).
