  • Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is finally coming to Steam on August 8, offering a wider audience the chance to play this acclaimed game.
  • Fans can expect the same challenging platforming, intense boss fights, and tricky puzzles that have earned the game high reviews.

Ubisoft has confirmed that Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is coming to Steam on August 8. Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown was released earlier this year to rave reviews, with many hailing the Metroidvania as one of the best games in the entire Prince of Persia franchise. But like many other Ubisoft-published games, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown skipped Steam at launch.

Initially, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown was only available to PC gamers willing to pick it up through the Ubisoft Store or the Epic Games Store. There are many PC gamers who flat-out refuse to use any digital distribution platforms besides Steam, so it seems likely that Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown's Steam release will help the game reach an even larger audience of potential players.
