Platformer Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown ranks among the pleasant surprises of this year. After many years, Ubisoft dug this classic out of the grave and brought addictive gameplay with an excellent movement system and sophisticated puzzles. In short, a game that can entertain and shorten the wait for a modern remake of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time.
But the surprises don't end there. We have more new games to look forward to, reveals well-known insider Tom Henderson. According to his information, it is created in collaboration between Ubisoft and the Evil Empire studio Rogue Prince of Persia. It is intended to be a new roguelite experience that will constantly receive free updates and evolve based on community feedback. With that in mind, it's set to arrive in Early Access on Steam later this year.
The game is said to be inspired by Franco-Belgian comics and has been in development for the past four years. The companies are believed to have agreed on a GDC around 2019.
The highly rated roguelike metroidvania Dead Cells was created by Motion Twin. It wasn't until later that the company Evil Empire was created, consisting of a team of original authors who were in charge of additional support for Dead Cells.
