Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is a vibrant platforming adventure from Ubisoft, set in the mythic world of Persia where players guide the young Prince Sargon. This guide offers a thorough walkthrough of the game, explains how to solve riddles and puzzles, and provides answers to common questions along the way.
Old royal road
Keep moving forward and follow the on-screen prompts. The journey gradually brings the player to the Lower City, where early challenges await.
Lower town
After a video with allies, confront the first enemies. Finish the tutorial and sprint to the map’s right side. A descent is available here, though the path is currently blocked.
In the next area, use parkour to clear obstacles. Push off a wall, grab a pole, then aim left and up before jumping again.
After descending, lower the bridge, move to the right, then climb again. If you reach the upper wooden platform, a crystal awaits, and it can be destroyed.
The primary path lies to the right, but traversing via poles allows access to the upper level and the search box.
On the next map, defeat the enemies and rise higher. The main route curves downward. Descend the platforms and activate the tree. This enables installation of various amulets found or purchased along the way. A companion appears to guide the hero, suggesting the use of the map to open memory fragments. With their help, a player can remember the area and save it to the map.
Move right, eliminating several strong foes. Climb higher by scaling pointed walls. Lower the bridge, cross to the other side, and raise it again. Then continue climbing.
Players reach a large chamber where restoring a statue and ascending platforms is required. Bricks that glow purple must be destroyed to progress.
To the left lies a closed passage to the boss, but it is blocked for now. Follow the top right to locate a box and Crystals. A cluster of crystals sits on the left, then move to the middle level and head to the right-hand area.
This leads to the elevator that can take you to the Upper Town, though proceeding there isn’t advised yet. A safer path is to go right to find the Refuge card. Here, Maga amulets can be purchased and installed via the tree, and the Kaheva Forge offers weapon and gear upgrades. The magi also grant a free Blessing amulet that slightly increases health.
From the Shrine, head to the area with rotating platforms on the right and descend. The top and bottom passages on the right are blocked, so proceed left instead.
You’ll enter a small, trap-filled level. After dodging all hazards and reaching the end, you’ll be taken to the Hyrcanian Forests map.
Hyrcanian forests
In this zone, new platforms appear: large plants that can’t be stood upon for long. When you reach the tree, jump down and deal with a handful of enemies.
To reach the small cave filled with crystals, shoot the plant above the hero near the stone columns and climb onto it directly.
Next come several agility trials. Replenish arrows and target the first plant that climbs higher.
Dispel the wall insects and repeat the sequence with the second flower. At the highest stage, time is crucial: you must shoot the second flower before the first leaf disappears.
A similar challenge awaits even higher. Shoot the flower, leap from wall to orange plant, and cross to the other side. Ensure you hit the second flower before the first leaf vanishes, or you will fall.
How to beat the boss
The journey returns to the Lower City, where the previously blocked passage can be accessed. Follow the route to the top, enter the open hatch, and step into the improvised arena.
The guide will be updated with more details soon. For now, the events and tips above provide a solid path through the early and mid portions of the game.
