Nintendo Switch Online subscribers can download and play the full Prince of Persia The Lost Crown at no extra cost through the end of September. In Brazil the window runs from September 24 at 2 p.m. to October 1 at 3:59 a.m. Brasília time, according to Nintendo Brazil's official notice.
This is not a short demo. It is the complete Nintendo Switch game for the trial period. If you later buy the title, your progress can carry over.
What the trial includes
Ubisoft Montpellier's 2.5D action-platformer is set on Mount Qaf. Players control Sargon, with acrobatic combat and time-based powers. Reviews were strong at the 2024 launch, but sales lagged and the original team was later disbanded.
That is why the trial matters: it is an official window for a Metroidvania many players skipped at launch.
Discount and My Nintendo points
The digital edition is also 70% off in the Nintendo eShop and Nintendo Store until October 8 at 3:59 a.m. Brasília time. Nintendo also offers 100 My Nintendo Platinum Points for completing a mission during the trial.
In the United States, Nintendo frames the same offer as a Game Trial from September 24 to 30 Pacific Time, with save transfer on purchase. Nintendo Life and IGN confirmed the offer for Switch Online members.
In practice
- You need an active Nintendo Switch Online membership and a Nintendo Account.
- The trial is time-limited; free access ends after the deadline.
- The 70% discount continues a few days after the trial ends.
- Trial saves can be used if you buy the game.
The offer does not change the fact that The Lost Crown is two years old. What changes is the cost of trying one of the generation's most praised Metroidvanias on Switch, with a short window and a reduced price if the trial convinces you.
