One of the more surprising elements of last week’s Summer Game Fest was that many titles were announced and announced ahead of other events by other publishers. One of the biggest ones was Ubisoft’s Prince of Persia The Lost Crown. The game is the latest in the fan-favorite franchise, but one look at the game could tell you that things were going to be much different this time around.

First up, below is an animated trailer for Prince of Persia The Lost Crown, and in it, you’ll see the various weapons and abilities that your character will have, as well as the numerous enemies you’re going to fight. As you can see, the style is more anime than previous iterations, and that shows that the team is focused more on the gameplay and giving gamers a unique world to delve into. Check it out below:

Once that was over, the director discussed the game’s story and your role. You take on the part of a young warrior in an elite group called The Immortals. The group has one goal, to protect Prince Hassan. However, he’s soon kidnapped, and the group is sent to a forbidden land to attempt to get him back.

That’s when things get a bit messy for your character. You get separated from your crew, and the land you find yourself in is full of both monsters and contradictions.

The game was confirmed to be semi-open-world in the style of Metroidvania. You’ll unlock new game areas after you gain and master new abilities. Furthermore, like past
