Attention all Prince of Persia fans! The wait is over as Ubisoft's latest 2.5D spinoff, Prince of Persia: Lost Crown, is now available on iOS and Android, and it's free-to-try. While our full review is on its way, let's dive into what this mobile version brings to the table.

Step back into a world steeped in Middle Eastern myth and legend with Prince of Persia: Lost Crown. As the time-bending hero Sargon, your mission is to rescue Prince Ghassan from the mystical Mount Qaf, a place once home to the gods but now overrun with evil forces.

The game retains the series' signature side-scrolling platforming, challenging you to navigate through increasingly complex and perilous levels. With a host of combo-stringing attacks at your disposal, you'll need both your wits and your skills to conquer the challenges ahead.

Made for Mobile
Prince of Persia: Lost Crown isn't just a port; it's been revamped and redesigned specifically for mobile devices. The interface has been optimized for touch controls, and there's also support for external controllers. To cater to a broader audience, the game includes various quality-of-life features, such as automatic modes, which might ease the difficulty curve but are especially helpful for those playing without a controller.

While some purists might question the impact on the game's intended challenge, these adaptations seem essential for a smooth mobile experience. Keep an eye out for our in-depth review to see if Prince of Persia: Lost Crown truly shines on mobile platforms.
