Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown Contains the Sands of Time
Lost Crowns takes place in a semi-open 2.5D world with characters that help and hinder the player. Swordplay is stylized and takes cues from games like his Guacamelee and Devil May Cry with juggle combos and multiple special abilities.
Platforming also makes use of acrobatics in addition to time-altering powers. It’s not as simple as rewinding time, as the trailer shows protagonist Sargon dropping a clone of himself into which he can rewind or create a fantasy doll of himself. These moves seem to be useful during combat as well.
Ubisoft also released an animated trailer for The Lost Crown to set the tone.
