The Rogue Prince of Persia gets massive content update ahead of price hike

Almost a year ago, Evil Empire (one of the teams behind Dead Cells) released The Rogue Prince of Persia in early access. Published by Ubisoft, this side-scrolling platforming rogue-lite has seen consistent updates in the months since. Ahead of its 1 year anniversary, The Rogue Prince of Persia has gotten another major patch – The Unleashed Army Update.

Taking to their Steam page, the team at Evil Empire officially released and detailed the Unleashed Army Update for The Rogue Prince of Persia. Just as with many of the previous patches, this latest update brings with it a ton of changes, overhauls and more, including but not limited to:

• 6 new Elite enemies
• Complete rework of ‘Awakening’
  • Removed slot limitations
  • New awakening stones
  • Rebalance of current stones
  • Boosted rewards
• Reduced input latency
• Reduced RAM usage
• Improved CPU usage
• Improved pathfinding processing

Finally, alongside all of this new content, the team have announced a coinciding price increase. Set to go live in May, this slight bump will see the game go from $19.99 to $24.99 – a relatively modest boost given just how much content has been added since its Early Access launch.

The Rogue Prince of Persia is a woefully underrated game which not only features excellent movement and combat mechanics, but sports a 10/10 soundtrack to boot. Hopefully the team at Evil Empire continue to show just as much love with all future updates.
