Building upon their success in the genre, Evil Empire's venture into the world of Prince of Persia promises to deliver a fresh and innovative gaming experience.

The choice to embrace the roguelite format seems fitting, considering Evil Empire's expertise in the genre. Dubbed "The Rogue Prince of Persia", the game is expected to offer a dynamic and unpredictable adventure, where each playthrough presents new challenges and opportunities.
