Artistic Changes
In a statement on Steam, Evil Empire explained that the update represents a “glow-up” for the game, with improved detail and color palettes. Most notably, the Prince character is no longer portrayed in purple.
“This change was necessary as the purple tone did not align with the new direction of the game,” Evil Empire stated. “The updated art direction now better suits the game’s genre, setting, and the Prince of Persia series as a whole.”

The Second Act update will introduce additional biomes, bosses, a new story act, and various quality of life enhancements such as multiple save slots.
