Prince of Persia The Lost Crown is coming to iOS and Android next month

Prince of Persia The Lost Crown was an unfortunately underrated recent release from Ubisoft, with the side-scrolling metroidvania seeing a ton of praise from critics and fans alike following its release last year. Though the game failed to meet Ubisoft’s expectations, it seems to be getting a second chance at life with The Lost Crown announced to be coming to both iOS and Android soon.

Making the surprise announcement, Ubisoft officially revealed that Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is set to come to smartphones on the 14th of April, writing:
“Adapted to mobile by Ubisoft Da Nang, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown will run at 60 FPS on recent generations of mobile devices. The game can be played either with an external controller or touch screen controls, with the ability to fully remap controls available for both options.”

The port brings with it some additional quality-of-life improvements to help with controls, including “auto-potion, auto-parry, and slow time options, as well as a host of other quality-of-life features.”

In the past few years we have seen an influx of console games brought over to mobile. From the likes of Stardew Valley; to Dredge; Death Stranding; Resident Evil; Slay the Spire; Balatro; Little Nightmares; Wreckfest and so much more, it seems like developers/publishers are finally acknowledging the potential of current-day smartphones and their power.

Hopefully Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown proves to be a success on mobile. No price has been provided, but the game will be free-to-start with an additional fee to unlock the full game.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
