How’s the new prince faring with critics? <\/p>
Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, the latest incarnation of the long-running puzzle platformer, will be released to the world in a couple of days.<\/p>\n
Giving the series a Metroidvania twist and a vibrant art style, it\u2019s safe to say we\u2019re pretty hyped.<\/p>\n

In the following Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown<\/a> review round-up, we\u2019ll take a look at the various voices in the critical sphere to see how the new prince is faring\u2026<\/p>\n Sometimes it\u2019s nice to get an overall idea right away. The average score generated by Metacritic isn\u2019t always indicative of a game\u2019s quality \u2013 sometimes a score looks mid, but that average is made from polarising high and low scores, so it\u2019s always best to check out the individual scores, too.<\/p>\n However, the Metacritic score<\/a> of Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is 86<\/strong>. Which is not bad at all.<\/p> Giving the game a perfect score, Patrick Dane at Dexerto<\/a> says: \u201cMontpellier has found the perfect niche for Prince of Persia as a reimagined Metroidvania, making it completely distinct from Assassin\u2019s Creed, and finding a new voice for the franchise to flourish.\u201d<\/p>\n Continuing the trend of high praise, Wesley LeBlanc at Game Informer<\/a> awarded The Lost Crown 9.5\/10. He says the game \u201cmakes it hard to put the controller down, constantly urging players to follow its paths just a little further\u201d.<\/p> What is the Metacritic score for Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
