Horror Master John Carpenter Really Wants You To Play This Ubisoft Game

As a die-hard fan of both horror classics and video games, I find myself utterly enamored by the recent endorsement of Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown by none other than the legendary John Carpenter. Given his illustrious career spanning decades and genres, it’s not surprising that he appreciates a good old-school side-scrolling adventure that harks back to the roots of the franchise.


Acclaimed filmmaker and gaming enthusiast John Carpenter publicly shared his enthusiasm for Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, the newest addition to the renowned Ubisoft series, through social media posts.

After no longer directing horror movie classics like Halloween and The Thing (his last credit being the 2010 thriller The Ward), this creator is now often seen immersed in the world of gaming – a pastime he openly enjoys and discusses frequently.

On September 22nd, Carpenter shared a heartfelt tribute on Twitter to The Lost Crown, the newest addition to the Prince of Persia series that hit shelves in January.

He spoke fondly of the classic side-scrolling adventure game, which honors its roots from the original versions and keeps up with the excitement promised in the initial releases.

In response to Carpenter’s compliment, Ubisoft expressed gratitude for his generous compliments and heartfelt approval.

Prior to gaining widespread recognition with the 2003 release of Sands of Time, the Prince of Persia franchise had already established itself as a reliable platformer, dating back to its debut in 1989.

Not just The Horror Master, but many others found The Lost Crown captivating too. On Metacritic, it boasts an impressive score of 86, and its user rating is equally high at 84. Here at Gfinity, we shared this sentiment, labeling it as “arguably one of the top Prince of Persia games in the series.

If you’re as passionate about Prince of Persia as John Carpenter, here’s some exciting news! Not only can you immerse yourself in The Lost Crown, but also The Rogue Prince of Persia, a roguelike game now available in early access on Steam.
