The Rogue Prince of Persia will arrive on Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 systems on December 16. After spending approximately one year in early access, the title received its complete launch on PC and various consoles during August.
Adapted specifically for portable and mixed gaming sessions, this edition encompasses every feature from the debut version. As a result, users can navigate through numerous environments, utilize an array of armaments, and discover concealed aspects.
Representing a novel approach to the Prince of Persia series, the title integrates agile traversal and battle mechanics into the roguelike format. The result is an exhilarating and fast-paced journey that echoes the side-scrolling roguelike Dead Cells, co-created by the studio Evil Empire responsible for that earlier hit.
The upcoming release operates exclusively in digital format, though fans of tangible editions have an upcoming treat. A special limited physical variant of The Rogue Prince of Persia is set to appear on April 10 for Switch, Switch 2, and PlayStation 5.
Included in this physical set are a redeemable game key card, a poster featuring dual artwork, and several cards showcasing in-game visuals. Reversing these cards aligns them to illustrate a segment of the overall game world. By contrast, no physical option is in development for Xbox Series X/S, although the downloadable edition remains obtainable.
