About the game

Prince of Persia (2008) introduces a new Prince and a separate adventure in a fantasy version of ancient Persia. Developed by Ubisoft Montreal, it combines an illustrated visual style with acrobatic exploration and close combat as the Prince confronts Ahriman’s corruption.

Explore your own path

The world follows a non-linear structure, letting you choose which areas to tackle as the journey unfolds. Traversal brings together climbing, wall movement, carefully timed leaps and crossings over deep canyons, with combat encounters woven into the exploration.

A partnership with Elika

Elika accompanies the Prince throughout the adventure. Her magical abilities support traversal, puzzle-solving and combat, opening up cooperative acrobatic moves and combined attacks. Their shared goal is to overcome the corrupted forces threatening the land and restore its light.
