Amazon has officially kicked off its 2024 Cyber Monday celebration, and one of the bigger deals on offer is on Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown. The PS5 version is down to just $14.97, the cheapest of the bunch. Buyers who own a PS4, Switch or Xbox can find similar deals. The Xbox version is $26.00, the Switch version is $17.97, and the PS4 version is $19.99. It's worth noting that the discount is only on physical copies; the digital code retains the usual $49.99 prince point. This is for the basic edition of the game.
Amazon seems to be leaving PC gamers out in the cold on this deal, but Steam has them covered. The base game is $19.99, and the Complete Edition is $24.99. The game was released in August of 2024, meaning that this deal is effectively more than half-off for a game that's less than six months old.
Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown walks the line between clinging to what made the series great during the Sands of Time saga and bringing it back to its roots. The game is a 2D Metroidvania that brings a base combat system that's dynamic and flowing, and gives the player chances to use accessories to change things up. The exploration, meanwhile, is non-linear and allows players to figure out the best way forward in any given scenario. Reviews are calling it a return to form for the series, with generally positive ratings across most major outlets.
