Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown Drops to Just $29.99 at Best Buy (Limited Time)

ign.com:

Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown has dropped to just $29.99 at Best Buy right now (see here). That's $20 off the MSRP and well worth the price of admission. While Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown sales numbers haven't been released just yet (among plenty of other Ubisoft games), it did receive some glowing reviews and seems to be one of the better games released so far this year.

For $30, you could be bagging an absolute bargain -- the deal is also available on all console platforms including PS5, PS4, Switch, and Xbox, so you've got the pick of the bunch. It's also a great game to play on the go, so opting for the Switch version could be the move. This is also one of the best Switch deals going right now as well, so it's well worth taking advantage while the sale is on.

We gave Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown an 8/10, with reviewer Phil Hornshaw stating: "Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown captures not only what made games such as The Sands of Time so good, but it irons out a lot of the little issues that plagued the 3D games in this series by opting for a 2D perspective – and owning it.

"It also works extremely well as a traditional Metroidvania, sticking with tried-and-true elements of the genre but executing on them with precision. The story can feel a bit jumbled at times, but it's the fast and fun combat system, the tight and satisfying controls, and the stylish look and feel that elevate Sargon’s journey and make The Lost Crown a worthy successor to the best of the Prince of Persia legacy."

This discount is also part of a wider Ubisoft sale at Best Buy, so make sure you check out everything else that's currently on offer.
