Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown for PS4

Master time, unleash acrobatic combat and explore the interconnected world of cursed Mount Qaf

Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown for PS4 is an action-adventure platformer from Ubisoft that brings the series back to the 2.5D side-scrolling roots of the 1989 original. Play as Sargon, the youngest warrior of the elite Immortals, on a mission to rescue the kidnapped Prince Ghassan from the mythical Mount Qaf.

Time powers for combat and puzzles

Simurgh's Shadow lets you set a marker in time and snap back to it instantly. The Dimensional Claw grabs and throws objects and enemies, while Clairvoyance shifts platforms between solid and intangible states. As you progress, you unlock even more abilities, including a double jump, a mid-air dash and a grapple to reach distant objects.

Acrobatic combat with twin blades, bow and chakram

The combat system draws on 2D fighting games, with combos, aerial attacks and charged strikes that hit several enemies at once. Parry attacks flagged with a yellow flash at the right moment to unleash a powerful counter. The bow and chakram strike from a distance, while the three levels of Athra Surges deliver special attacks against giant mythical creatures.

A Metroidvania world full of secret rooms and shortcuts

The areas of Mount Qaf are all interlinked, and some zones only open up once Sargon gains the right ability. Alternate routes lead to side quests, optional bosses, treasure chests and health upgrades. With up to 12 amulet slots, you can build a combat style that's all your own.

Guided and Exploration modes with separate difficulty settings

In Guided mode, quest objectives are marked on the map, while in Exploration mode you find them yourself using clues from characters and the world around you. Difficulty for exploration, platforming sections and combat can be adjusted separately. You can pin screenshots to the map so you can come back to an unsolved puzzle later.

An original story in mythical Persia

General Anahita, Sargon's mentor, kidnaps the crown prince during the victory celebration and takes him to the citadel of Qaf, ravaged by an unknown curse. The music is composed by Gareth Coker and Mentrix. It is also among the first games in the series to feature a Persian-language dub.
