Launching a little over a month ago, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown may not have got off to a great start from a sales perspective (if reports are to be believed, at least), but the 2D Metroidvania action-platformer has, nonetheless, received near-universal acclaim from those who’ve played it, and it seems that reception hasn’t gone unnoticed at Ubisoft.
The company recently took to Twitter to share a video message from Ubisoft Montpellier’s Mouni Radi, game director on The Lost Crown, in which, after thanking fans for their support and praise of the game, Radi revealed that the development team intends to add new content and modes to the game with multiple free updates over the course of these months. The first of these will be coming “soon”, he added.
“Thank you for all the love. It means the world to us seeing you enjoy your time with the game just as much as we do,” Radi said. “Which is why I’m especially pleased to let you know that we are far from being done. We’ve got some cool plans for the coming months. These plans include free updates adding more content and modes. Modes for you to challenge, explore, and enjoy. Our first free update is coming soon.”
In our review of Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, we awarded it a score of 9/10, saying, “The Lost Crown is a fantastic game. Not only does it capture the biggest strengths of Prince of Persia’s earliest sidescrolling instalments, it also reinvigorates the series in spectacular fashion with its Metroidvania design structure. From level design to combat, from the platforming to its visual style, from the exploration to the soundtrack, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is an impressive accomplishment in more ways than one, and one of Ubisoft’s best games in years.” Read the full review through here.
Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
