Few games have surprised me more in recent times than Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, a metroidvania that no one expected and that has ended up conquering the hearts of players.
Unfortunately, despite being very good, the game’s sales have been lower than expected, as we learned from Ubisoft’s own business update for shareholders: they barely reached 800,000 players after a month of release.
And yet, Ubisoft has not given up, as we have seen with the latest update from their development team, who have not said their last word about the game.
A free DLC with more content and bug fixes
Yesterday, the developers took to Twitter to provide an update to the community. The game director, Mounir Radi, appeared in a short video to thank the fans for their warm reception. He also stated that Ubisoft Montpellier is far from done with their support for the game.
“We have great plans for the coming months. These plans include free updates that add more content and modes, modes for you to challenge, explore and enjoy. Our first free update will be coming soon,” explained Mounir Radi in the tweet.
Radi did not provide further details, although he shared the advice that Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown players should train with Artaban and possibly try to complete the game in Immortal mode in anticipation of upcoming content.
We are very happy that Ubisoft wants to give more support and love to a game that has delighted the press (with an 86 on Metacritic) and the players (another 86), despite the sales not being as expected.
