Critic reviews
- NoobFeed8.5The Rogue Prince of Persia is a fast, fluid roguelite that makes movement the main attraction. On PS5 this delivers smooth performance, satisfying combat, and an addictive loop that’s hard to put down.
- COGconnected8.5After launching on most consoles in August, The Rogue Prince of Persia finally makes the leap to Nintendo’s hybrid device.
- Gaming Bolt8.0GREAT Between Dead Cells and other rogue-lites, The Rogue Prince of Persia may not hold hardcore fans over in the very long run.
- Games Radar+7.0The Rogue Prince of Persia can be a bit too conventional for its own good, lacking any real unique qualities in a crowded market, but it's certainly good-looking and there's a fluidity to the platforming that will carry most players through to the end. I confess I hoped for more from the Dead Cells developer, but I won't say I'm disappointed.
