One of my favorite games so far this year is a new Prince of Persia. Well, now I’m already looking forward to another new Prince of Persia.

Specifically, I’m talking about The Rogue Prince of Persia, a new game from publisher Ubisoft and Dead Cells developer Evil Empire. Just with Dead Cells, this is a 2D action platformer with rogue-like elements. It will release in Steam Early Access on May 11.
