Description
In the midst of a land rooted in Persian mythology, the Prince finds himself caught in an epic battle between the forces of Good and Evil: the God of Light, Ormazd, against his brother Ahriman, the God of Evil and destruction. He becomes a witness to the destruction of the legendary Tree of Life - an act which threatens to plunge the world into darkness for eternity. A black substance called "The Corruption" begins to contaminate the ground and even the sky itself. Our heroic Prince, together with the enigmatic and dangerous Elika, must do all that he can to rid the world from this ultimate evil.

Featuring a re-imagined Prince and a beautiful cel-shaded world, Prince of Persia is chock full of the awesome acrobatics and free-form fighting that are the series’ hallmark. A huge, open world awaits you, intrepid adventurer. Will you be the one to cleanse the world of Ahriman's corruptive influence?

  • Non-linear gameplay in a detailed, open-ended world.
  • Masterful storytelling and lavish environments guarantee a cinematic action-adventure experience
  • Introducing Elika, a deadly and mysterious ally, who’s gifted with magical talents and dazzling acrobatic prowess.

Not including DLC from Consoles

Buyer beware, the games ending is a cliffhanger that only gets resolved from DLC that is only available on console which means that unless you dig up a copy and can still find and purchase this story DLC, you won't be able to complete the games plot.

No Epilogue DLC

Maybe the game is good, but I see no reason to buy a game without the true ending. According to Ubisoft's community manager, the Epilogue DLC was only released on consoles and not on PC for "commercial reasons". ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Crippled by the combat and lack of DLC

On the whole this is a reasonably good game which unfortunately was prevented from being a true classic by some rather stupid design decisions. Why do you have to press the E key repeatedly to get Elika to heal the Fertile grounds? There's no challenge at that point, why should I have to wear out the keys on keyboard instead of just pressing it once? Why does the section where you have to carry Elika literally consist of about a minute of the player only pressing the W key? Why did no one point out that having combat that almost entirely consists of quicktime events is boring but that in cases where you have a very small platform to fight on, you'll trigger them every few hits? These are minor complaints that sum up the whole game for me. Throughout the game I was left wondering who thought this decision was a good idea. The gameplay feels unpolished, which is a pity because it seems like a lot of time was spent on everything else.

Good looking, bad gameplay

This is the best looking of all PoP games, unfortunatly the gameplay it's horrible. The beggining it's cool, but after that you have to complete some platforming areas with very few enemies(something like one or two per area), after passing and area you have to pass it again collecting lums (I stopped to playing this game after see that I was supposed to collect lums, collecting lums it's good for Rayman but not for PoP). All the fights are one vs one, forgot the great combat system of the SoT series, forgot all the traps, and one remains the ptaforming elements. This game isn't challenging, doesn't have any traps, have very few fights and it's very repetitive. Maybe you can say that this PoP have exporation, but I didn't find fun to explore because most of the zones looks very similar (dark and grey at the beggining and green after finishing it). Also, the story isn't great, but the story is not the strong point in any Prince of Persia(if you want a good story play Chrono Trigger or Final Fantasy VII, not action-adventure games). Ohhh, one last thing: yo cannot die. I don't think it's a great fault, I think the worst faults was removing traps, reducing the combat and adding the lums.

Shame that this game is unfinished.

Just finished this few hours ago and I have felt that something is missing. It seemed, that i did not completed the game fully. So went on youtube, and had to learn that, the end content was cut off on the PC version. Its a basic ubisoft treatment... very sad. I just wish that GOG would have finished it, but I am not getting my hopes up after all these years. Watching it as someone else plays, it like using someones used socks.
