If you enjoy puzzles, acrobatics, and action in the Prince of Persia series, The Lost Crown is a game you should keep an eye on for the early next year.
"EGX 2023 lacked AAA pulling power and didn't quite match last year's indie chops. Pizza and an opticians produced the biggest queues - and that says a lot."

With Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, Ubisoft reinvents its classic videogame franchise yet again in a a brilliantly put together platformer that has a huge emphasis on speed and precision movement and does not shy away from set pieces and fantastic combat.
WTMG's Leo Faria: "Even though this demo was short, and I still have no idea of what to expect in terms of unlockables or new abilities, I had a blast with what little I could play of Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown. What started off as a clunky, slow-paced 2D platformer in the late 80s has now finally made a comeback to its side-scrolling roots, but as a stylish, fast-paced metroidvania with slick combat, great visuals, and neat accessibility options. Can January 18th come soon? I don’t even mind if they decide to cancel the remake of The Sands of Time. I never thought a fast-paced Prince of Persia metroidvania was something I’d so desperately want in my life."
How is that returning to roots -.- like really?
