Recently, mobile gaming has begun catching up with major platforms in terms of game selection. Yet some titles that seem tailor-made for smartphones still take longer to arrive, like Prince of Persia: Lost Crown, which finally makes its iOS and Android debut on April 14th.
Immerse yourself in a mythological Persian world with this fresh take on the legendary platforming franchise. As the courageous warrior Sargon, you'll navigate the mystical Mount Qaf on a mission to save Prince Ghassan.
Following the series' tradition of reinvention, Lost Crown blends fluid parkour movement with intense combat mechanics. Players will unleash powerful combos and manipulate time itself to overcome formidable foes.
Royal ArrivalThe mobile version introduces a try-before-you-buy option, letting players experience the game before committing. If it captures your interest, you can then unlock the complete adventure.
When initially released, some criticized Lost Crown's 2.5D perspective as old-fashioned compared to cutting-edge 3D titles. However, on mobile platforms, this polished Metroidvania experience should resonate strongly with players.
