Prince of Persia™: The Lost Crown Patch Divine Trails Content Update

Divine Trials Content Update Information

This third free update adds twenty-two new expert challenges for you to test the skills you have gained, pushing you to your limits!

In the Divine Trials, you will be able to test yourself in progressively more difficult challenges, set with unique and exotic conditions. Whether it's platforming, brain teasers, combat or spiced-up Boss Battles - there won't be any easy victories this time! 

The four new amulets with their epic modifiers and the four new outfits, all usable in the main story of the game, will be worth your efforts. They can be unlocked by completing the Trials. And will reward you if you manage to beat the revised Boss at the end of each Memorial. 

These Trials are progressively unlocked throughout the regular game, but if you have already finished the main story, you will get access to all the trails at once, in your existing saves. 

Totally new challenges

The Divine Trials can be accessed via a special door in the Haven, after having gained the Rush of the Simurgh (Air dash) time power.

Entering the special door leads you to a mystical room containing 4 Memorials, one for each set of challenges. Each Memorial is unlocked after gaining a specific power in the main story.

4 different Memorials with gradual unlock, arranged by difficulty:  

  • The 1st Memorial (Hound): unlocked after defeating the Manticore and gaining the Rush of the Simurgh (Air dash) 
  • The 2nd Memorial (Peacock): unlocked after escaping the Depths and gaining the Shadow of the Simurgh
  • The 3rd Memorial (Stallion): unlocked after defeating the darkest of souls and gaining the Gravity Wings (Double Jump) 
  • The 4th Memorial (Auroch): unlocked after emerging victorious at the battle at the Observatory and gaining the Fabric of Time

Accomplish the Trials in any order

When you interact with a Memorial, a varied set of 5 to 6 challenges await you.

You are free to complete the combat, puzzle and platforming challenges in any order. You will however have to beat all challenges of the Memorial to unlock the final boss challenge.

  • Revised Bosses: The final challenge of each Memorial is an updated Boss from the main game! With new attack patterns and sometimes an altered appearance. 
  • Prove your skills and get rewarded: Defeating the revised Boss will grant you the Memorial's reward: a new Amulet and a new Outfit for Sargon.

Each challenge is unique

Each trial is carefully handcrafted with exotic modifiers to create exciting challenges deeply different from anything seen in the game this far.

  • Specific set of modifiers: Trials can present unique mechanics not used in the game. For instance, one is a Time attack: a timed platform challenge, with each killed enemy on the way adding a few seconds to the timer. Another can be a Combat challenge where enemies can only be damaged by specific attacks, or environmental damage, forcing you to adapt your strategy. 
  • Specific setup for each Trial: Your loadout is pre-fixed, independent from your regular gear in the game: number of potions, equipped amulets, and life bar. Some challenges will even forbid the usage of the bow, or of specific Time Powers. 
  • Platform & Puzzle Challenges: These will require you to be very precise in your traversal abilities. They will make you think of new and clever ways to use the powers at your disposal.
  • Combat Challenges: These very often require fighting waves after waves of enemies without dying - and most often without potions. Each one features a unique modifier that makes the fight memorable and adds a layer of difficulty.  
  • 4 Revised Bosses: Fight Erlik, Jahandar, Kiana and Menolias anew, but this time with extra attack patterns - and a fixed loadout to begin with.

4 new Amulets to unlock:

The new Amulets can be used outside of the challenges, in the rest of the game, once unlocked. However, they cannot be upgraded, contrary to the other Amulets from the main game.

  • Arash's Quiver: Arrows quiver automatically refills over time - goes back up to 5 arrows, independently of max capacity. This is unlocked by completing the 1st Memorial.
  • Flaming Whirlwind: Charge your attack and unleash a storm of blue fire. Replaces the regular charged attack. This is unlocked by completing the 2nd Memorial. 
  • Point of Honor: After hitting enemies several times in a row your next arrow shot is stronger. This is unlocked by completing the 3rd Memorial. 
  • Frozen Truth: Hold down the Parry button for a few seconds to charge an ice protection, that will partially protect you from the next attack. Once hit, it explodes in a small AoE ice attack that freezes enemies nearby. The ability vanishes after a few seconds if not triggered. This is unlocked by completing the 4th Memorial. 

All Trials are compatible with difficulty presets/customized difficulty. The Platforming Help Option can be enabled during platforming sequences.

Note: Speedrun mode timer keeps running normally in the Trials. Also, dying in a Trial while in Permadeath mode doesn't trigger the Permadeath.

Fashion Week

It's not a content update without some new outfits for Sargon. This one brings 4 new outfits!

Let's take a sneak peek shall we?
