Ubisoft's recent side-scrolling metroidvania has been confirmed Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is set to receive more content in free updates, the first of which will arrive “soon.”
The news was announced by game director Mounir Radi in a video shared on Twitter /, who thanked the players for their support so far. However, he revealed, the developers are “far from done.”
Specifically, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown Players can expect to see additional content and modes in the coming months, which will surely be fantastic news for anyone who has already finished the side-scrolling game's main story.
“We have some interesting plans for the coming months. These plans include free updates, adding more content and modes – modes so you can challenge, explore and enjoy,” said Radi. “Our first free update is coming soon.”
From our development team to you, thank you very much. 🥰 pic.twitter.com/OUDWYSLXAkFebruary 22, 2024
Radi recommended that anyone waiting for these updates pay attention to the game's existing Immortal difficulty, which is the most challenging of the bunch with significantly stronger enemies to fight. He also advised that players train with Artabán. He joked that “these skills could come in very handy,” so do what you want with that.
Otherwise, Radi didn't provide any clues as to what players can expect from the content updates, nor were fans given an exact date to expect, so they'll just have to watch this space for now.
Here at TechRadar Gaming, Editor-in-Chief Jake Tucker gave Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown four stars out of five in his review and praised its movement and evolution of tropes within the metroidvania genre.
