The Rogue Prince of Persia surprise-drops onto both PlayStation Plus and Game Pass

After a year and a half spent in Early Access, the fun and fluid rouge-like action-platformer The Rogue Prince of Persia has officially hit 1.0. Alongside the release of the full version on PC – and its official console debut – the game has surprise-dropped onto both PlayStation Plus Extra and Xbox Game Pass as day-one additions.

Version 1.0 of The Rogue Prince of Persia brings with it a number of major additions, including two new biomes; the final boss fight and its concluding story act. As mentioned, the game is now also available on consoles for the first time.

While it is certainly worth its asking price of $29.99, those with a PlayStation Plus Extra / Premium subscription (as well as Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members) can hop in right now for ‘free’.

In case you are unfamiliar, The Rogue Prince of Persia is a highly slick and satisfying 2D side-scrolling rogue-like metroidvania from Evil Empire – the current team working on the equally-as-excellent Dead Cells.

If you’ve not checked out The Rogue Prince of Persia during its Early Access period (or couldn't due to being a console player), now is the best time to give this highly-underrated game a try.
