The highly anticipated *Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown* has now made its way to Android devices, following its initial launch on PC in January 2024. Developed by Ubisoft, this metroidvania action game puts you in the shoes of Sargon, a young and skilled warrior among the elite group known as the Immortals.
Here’s the Story
Your mission begins when Queen Thomyris entrusts you and your team with a crucial task: to rescue her son, Prince Ghassan. This quest leads you to the enigmatic Mount Qaf, a once-divine city now plagued by time-warped creatures and cursed landscapes.
Despite being a single mountain, Mount Qaf in *Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown* is teeming with diverse environments, from a dilapidated temple to a forgotten desert. The expansive yet interconnected map allows for a seamless exploration experience, complete with the ability to take photos of your surroundings to aid in navigation.
The game introduces innovative mechanics that enhance both platforming and combat. You can drop a shadow and teleport back to it at any time, adding a layer of strategy and dynamism to your gameplay. Scattered throughout the map are amulets that allow you to customize and enhance Sargon’s abilities, making every playthrough unique.
Sargon’s arsenal includes powerful ultimate moves known as Athra Surges, perfect for finishing off enemies in style. Additionally, engaging in various side quests not only enriches the lore of Mount Qaf but also offers a plethora of collectibles and challenges to keep you hooked.
