Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is the first hit of the 2024 gaming year for us. Although the action game won’t be released until next Thursday, we’ve already been able to test it (in depth) and are almost completely thrilled. And (high ratings) are also being awarded internationally. If you are also looking forward to the release, or are still a little skeptical, there is now good news
Play before release
You can now try out a free demo version of the game It is available for PC, Xbox, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch. A specially created demo level is apparently playable in this version, instead of simply the beginning of the story. Progress made can therefore not be transferred to the full version.

What makes Prince of Persia good?
The Lost Crown scared off some fans with its announcement trailer and caused a lot of skepticism, but in the end it turned out to be a really good game, which we rate with 87 points in our test. We’ll briefly summarize what exactly makes this action platformer with Metroidvania elements so good:
- Large open world full of surprises
- Great combat system with clever enemies and massive bosses
- Precise controls
- Many missions with successful dialogs
- Sensible comfort functions
World change for the better? After Ubisoft’s often formulaic worlds have been criticized for some time, the publisher has now delivered two really good open worlds with Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora and the new Prince of Persia. It remains to be seen whether further successes of this kind can be celebrated with existing brands such as Assassin’s Creed or Far Cry.
