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

The much-anticipated Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown has made its way to Android devices, following its initial launch on PC in January 2024. Developed by Ubisoft, this metroidvania action game immerses you in the role of Sargon, a young warrior from the Immortals.

Here’s the Story

Your journey begins when Queen Thomyris enlists you and your squad to rescue her son, Prince Ghassan. This quest leads you to Mount Qaf, a once divine city now plagued by time-warped creatures and cursed terrain. Despite being a single mountain, Mount Qaf in Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is brimming with diverse landscapes—from a ruined temple to a forgotten desert. The map is vast yet interconnected, featuring a unique photo mode that lets you capture your surroundings.

The game introduces innovative mechanics, such as the ability to drop a shadow and teleport back to it at will, enhancing the dynamic nature of platforming and combat. Hidden amulets scattered across the map allow you to customize Sargon’s abilities. Sargon's ultimate moves, known as Athra Surges, provide thrilling ways to conclude battles. Additionally, various quests deepen the lore of Mount Qaf and offer a wealth of collectibles and challenges. Be sure to check out the trailer below to see the game in action.
