Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown may only be a platformer, but its world is massive and easy to get lost in. There are several main quests in The Lost Crown, and it is not easy to complete them. The Path to the Eternal Sand Prison is one of the game's longest and most taxing missions.
The mission starts after the Tiger and The Rest quest. In the Path to the Eternal Sand Prison, Sargon has to find two different time powers. But that's easier said than done, as players will have to traverse different locations in The Lost Crown.
Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown - Minimum PC Requirements
Ahead of its launch, Ubisoft has revealed the minimum PC requirements for Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown.
How To Reach Pit of The Eternal Sands In The Lost Crown
There are two ways to complete the main mission. Players could either head to the Sacred Archives or try to test their mettle against Kiana. The latter shouldn't be a problem if you have upgraded Sargon's equipment. Players can find Kiana deep inside the Hyrcanian Forest. She is not alone; in fact, she is accompanied by a massive canine. The bad news is that the dog is not just a mount but a danger to Sargon. The two will do everything in their power to rip apart Sargon. The key is not to rush and to stay calm.
Players should tend to avoid overcommitting, which may create an opening for Kiana. Keep chipping away at her health, and she should be beaten in a few minutes. After she is defeated, Sargon will receive the Dimensional Claw.
Upgrade Sargon's swords to deal more damage to Kiana.
Next, players need to head toward the Sacred Archives, which is more about solving puzzles. Once players reach the area, there will only be one door open. Their goal is to open all the doors and solve the puzzles. The first puzzle is relatively simple, and it should be over quickly. Use the first and second afterimages of Sargon to pull the levers on both sides. During the final round, wait near the locked gates and then enter once they are open.
The second puzzle requires players to climb onto the lever on the right wall for a few seconds before returning to the switch in the middle. In the subsequent round, pull on the switch on the left. For the third round, jump on the platform on the left. Then, wait for one of the copies to step on the switch and reach the top.
The third puzzle is easy, and it requires players to go up quickly and use the Shadow of Simurgh. In the subsequent round, trigger the power again to reach the top quickly. Then, in the remaining time, jump over to the other side and stay on the switch. Finally, wait for both copies to do their jobs and enter the closed room.
The fourth and final puzzle requires players to jump down and use the Shadow of Simurgh just beyond the latch. Step on the switch and wait for time to pass. Next, jump down after a slight delay until the platform is open. Quickly jump up and pull the lever.
After earning the Clairvoyance power, go back to the place with the seals. Use the newly gained powers to reach and break them. Ultimately, jump down to enter the Pit of Eternal Sands to fight Azhdaha.
