[Thick Thighs Save Lives]

The team's been working insanely hard these past few months to get the game ready for this huge content injection, which will give you:​

• Big art upgrade​
• More biomes​
• More bosses​
• New story act + tons of narrative polish for Act 1​
• New enemies​
• Many Quality of Life additions like multiple save slots & more​
• German, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish localisation​

This update will mark a point where we've effectively doubled the game's content from launch. All the roguelite markers are present - gameplay loop, metaprogression, builds, difficulty modifiers and more - and we're not finishing here with development continuing into 2025!

Art Direction change

​

The most obvious change of this update is the art direction where we've changed the colour palettes. had much more detail added and just generally "improved". You'll also notice that the Prince is no longer purple - this change was made as the purple tone just didn't fit with the new direction.

​

We'll go into more detail about why we made these changes next week, but we find that the art direction is now a much better fit with the game's genre, setting/story and the Prince of Persia series as a whole.

Release date & Sale

So yup, this will be a great time to jump back in, or to start playing, so come back on the 21st November to see what we've been up to!

The game will also be on sale to celebrate the update, so if you know someone who may be interested, give them a heads up for us

Hopefully performance updates as well. Runs crappy on the deck which is ridiculous.

 

[Little Mac]

Looks cool to me. Is it like Deadcells?

 

[diffusionx]

Trump wins and they're already erasing people of purple color... just where does this end?

I believe it's from the same devs. Haven't played it yet since I don't do early access. Will grab it once it officially releases and it comes on physical.

This is legitimately crazy. Probably the first time I've seen a game wholesale change their art post release because of the current environment. Just call it what it is; they made the game look less gay.

 

[Punished Miku]

I'm not a fan of roguelikes usually, but I love the art style and anything PoP is day 1 for me. Waiting for console.

 

[Jacob0101]

Cool, but why ea?

 

[Kurotri]

That's insane, I'm actually kinda flabbergasted that they are doing this. Big props.

 

[Hookshot]

I don’t understand why they made this so close to lost crown.

 

[Danteyke223]

I don’t understand why they made this so close to lost crown.

Mostly because the developers got booted off of Dead Cells, because of some weird shenanigans. So they released this as early access. I trust them as they been carryin Dead Cells for years, and now Motion Twin is trying to claim credit for their hardwork.

 

[Futaleufu]

Color palette reminds me of the original PoP 2: the abandoned palace and the bird people cult.

 

[March Climber]

Looks really good. Glad I waited.
