Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, a standout title, delivers classic series elements like tight parkour, sword combat, and challenging platforming, all wrapped in a visually stunning package. Its innovative “memory shards” feature, allowing players to pin screenshots to their map, is a welcome addition to the genre.
Despite critical acclaim, The Lost Crown reportedly faced underwhelming sales, leading to the game’s development team being disbanded. However, another Prince of Persia title is on the horizon.
Other highlights for Extra and Premium members include Captain Tsubasa: Rise of New Champions, offering a visually striking arcade soccer experience, and Arcade Paradise, a nostalgic management sim with mini-games. Bang-on Balls: Chronicles provides light-hearted platforming with slapstick humour, while UFC 5 caters to fans of EA Sports’ fighting series.
