Ubisoft and Evil Empire have officially announced that The Rogue Prince of Persia, the critically acclaimed 2D action-platforming roguelite, will launch on Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 on December 16, 2025. Following its successful debut on Ubisoft+, PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5, the game’s arrival on Nintendo’s hybrid platforms marks the next major milestone in its global rollout.
Optimised for Handheld and Hybrid Play
Built from the ground up for performance and portability, the Switch versions of The Rogue Prince of Persia include the complete 1.0 release. Players will experience every biome, weapon, medallion, and all the finely tuned gameplay that made the title a standout success across other platforms. The fast, fluid combat, acrobatic parkour system, and emotional story of redemption are all fully intact — now playable anytime, anywhere.
Physical Editions Coming April 2026
Publishing partner U&I Entertainment has also confirmed that physical Standard and Immortal Editions will arrive on April 10, 2026, for PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and Switch 2.
The Immortal Edition is a collector’s dream, featuring the full game key card, a double-sided poster, and a set of premium art cards. Each card displays breathtaking imagery from the game, with the reverse sides forming a map of the Persian kingdom. All of this comes housed in a SteelBook case with a sleek outer sleeve, offering fans the ultimate physical keepsake.
Pre-orders for both editions open on November 14. Retail pricing and regional availability will vary by location, so fans are encouraged to check with local retailers.
A Reimagined Persian Epic
The Rogue Prince of Persia reimagines the classic series with a bold, roguelite twist. Set in a beautifully stylised Persian world, players must master fast-paced combat and fluid parkour while uncovering secrets and forging new alliances. Every death brings fresh opportunities, as procedurally generated levels and a branching narrative encourage experimentation and discovery.
With over 100 weapons and medallions to collect, players can create unique builds tailored to their playstyle. Agility is the key to survival — from wall-running and evading traps to chaining elegant combos that flow seamlessly through each environment. Only those who adapt, evolve, and perfect their rhythm will uncover the game’s true ending — rewriting fate itself in a desperate bid to save Persia.
Developer Insights and Soundtrack
“We’re thrilled to bring The Rogue Prince of Persia to Nintendo Switch players,” said Lucie Dewagnier, Game Director at Evil Empire. “The game’s fast-paced action and replayability make it a perfect fit for hybrid play. We can’t wait to see players dive into the Prince’s journey on the go.”
Complementing the action is an immersive original soundtrack composed by ASADI, a Persian-American artist whose blend of traditional and electronic sounds perfectly captures the game’s intense yet emotional tone. The full soundtrack is available now on all major streaming platforms and Ubisoft Music’s YouTube channel, with a vinyl edition coming soon via Laced Records.

The Rogue Prince of Persia releases digitally for Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 on December 16, 2025, with physical editions arriving April 10, 2026. Pre-orders open November 14 for the Standard and Immortal Editions.
