The Rogue Prince of Persia from the creators of Dead Cells coming to Steam early access: Release date, platforms, and more explored

Ubisoft and Evil Empire, the studio behind the Castlevania-themed expansion for Dead Cells, announced their latest title, The Rogue Prince of Persia. Following the overwhelmingly positive reception of Prince of Persia The Lost Crown, the upcoming new Prince of Persia title is yet another 2D platformer, with roguelike elements, akin to Dead Cells.

The announcement comes with a cinematic as well as a gameplay trailer, which gives fans a sneak peek into the game's platforming, combat, and unique roguelike elements.
