While you can buy Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown outright, you can also play the Metroid-vania action game via an active Ubisoft Plus subscription.
Ubisoft Plus is very similar to the popular Xbox Game Pass subscription but is solely for Ubisoft games. Members have access to a vault full of Ubisoft games, and early access to day-one releases. Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is one of these day-one releases now available via early access, and you can start playing it today.
How to play Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown through Ubisoft Plus
To play Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown using Ubisoft Plus, you must subscribe to the service via the publisher’s official store. Ubisoft Plus is available both on PC and Xbox consoles. You can also find it through Ubisoft Connect PC, in the Ubisoft Plus section.
With a Ubisoft Plus subscription, you will have full access to the game’s deluxe edition, with three days of early access. Since the game is releasing on Jan. 18, that means you can start playing the full version as early as Jan. 15. If you’re undecided, you can also access a free demo right now to get a glimpse of what’s to come.
Once subscribed to Ubisoft Plus, you must complete one additional step to download and play the game through the service. To access the Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, you have to add it to your library first through the Ubisoft Connect client.
To do so, head to the Ubisoft+ tab and select the game. You’ll find a download symbol at the arrow icon in the bottom-right corner of the window. Then, all you have left to do is follow the steps indicated by the client to download the latest Prince of Persia title.
What’s included in a Ubisoft Plus subscription?
Ubisoft Plus is a subscription service that grants access to a multitude of titles by the publisher, including additional content such as DLC, expansions, and season passes. It includes over 100 games, with many of the publisher’s games available on the service as soon as they are released.
Ubisoft Plus costs $17.99 per month for access to the full library of games on PC, plus access to several selected games on Xbox and Cloud with Luna. You also get monthly rewards and discounts on games or in-game purchases.
If you don’t foresee yourself playing Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown for more than two months, then the Ubisoft Plus can be considered a better value. That is if you don’t care about actually owning the games you play.
