Prince of Persia The Lost Crown is Ubisoft’s best game in years. Not only does it step out from the shadow of the Assassin’s Creed and Far Cry-ification of the developer’s open worlds, but it also makes meaningful improvements to the Metroidvania genre it sits so comfortably in. Coming from Rayman Legends studio Ubisoft Montpellier, this isn’t that much of a surprise, but you’ll still be glad to know we’re getting more of the adventure. Oh, and it’ll be free too.
