The Rogue Prince of Persia - by the developers of Dead Cells [out now on Steam Early Access]

I keep reading this as "The fresh prince of Persia"

This has potential, Dead Cells is fun, but it's the complete opposite of classic PoP: move around as quick as possible, in fact the game gives you rewards for clearing stages quickly.

Probably won't be my cup of tea, but that's one Hell of a good trailer. Even the gameplay kept up with the animation that starts off the trailer. They did a good job there.

It's just The Lost Crown anime shit with permadeath. PoP will never be about methodical movement and dueling again.

 

[Morpheus Kitami]

I have mixed feelings on this. The gameplay looks like it might be pretty good, but something about that artstyle just seems wrong for the series, seems somewhat Moebius-styled, which I don't think is a good fit for PoP, which should be a bit more grounded. And I'm not sure I can really trust something like this, not since they unveiled that other unholy abomination.

The Gay Prince of Faggotry.

This iteration of prince looks like he supports Bernie Sanders, only drinks soy milk latte, drives an EV, and spends a lot of time on Resetera. He's also transitioning.

Delayed because Hades 2 stealth drop. $19.99 price confirmed.

Hello everyone,

So if you didn't see our post on Friday, we're briefly delaying the launch of The Rogue Prince of Persia.

You can read that post with the full explanation here.
TLDR: Hades 2 stealth drop is taking up all the air in the indie gaming/roguelite/Early Access space!

You can imagine that last week was a bit of a manic one for us, but we said we'd be back today with the new release date and so here we go... we will be releasing on
the 27th May.


Not too far away, but it will let people finish up playing Hades 2 and the other great games that came out last week (and the ones which are coming out this week ^^'), and we'll keep adding polish for our own release too.
If Silksong shadow drops in the next two weeks I'm burning the whole thing down!


Apologies again to anyone who was hyped to play it tomorrow, but we really believe this was the best choice for the long-term health of the game. We hope you understand and can be patient just a bit longer.

In the meantime, we have some juicy bits to keep you going until launch day - a full gameplay trailer featuring our theme song and (finally) the game's price! We think you'll like both



Next Community Update

So yeah, the music you just heard in the trailer was part of our theme song, made by the insanely talented Asadi, specialist of Persian trap music. He has created the entire soundtrack for the game, blending ancient tones with modern rhythms and, spoiler alert, it is absolutely
banging.
.

We'll be going into his background and influences in our next community update on Friday 17th May, as well as the art direction...

What will the game cost?

We've been seeing quite a few questions about the price of the game, with guesses varying from 30$ to 60$ (60$, really?!).

Well, we can finally reveal that The Rogue Prince of Persia will cost... 19.99$/€!

There might even be a cheeky little launch discount too, if you needed any more reason to start playing on launch day.

Hope to see you all there, for now it's back to debug for us!

At least Dead Cells visual style had a bit of substance, even if it was 3d models made to look like pixels, this one looks like a more polished flash game i.e. Pamplona

This looks like globohomo corporate "art" vomit. They really can't just let this franchise die in peace, can they?.
