Rogue Prince of Persia Temple of Fire Update

Evil Empire's The Rogue Prince of Persia has marked a significant milestone in its early access phase with the release of a substantial update. This update, known as the Temple of Fire, introduces an array of new features, including a new biome, fresh weapons, and diverse enemies, thereby enhancing the overall gameplay experience for players.

This update comes on the heels of distractions caused by the early access launch of Hades 2, which had initially diverted attention from the game's development. However, the extra time allowed the developers to refine the game further. With plans for a full release in 2025, the game is expected to receive continuous support and development, offering fans more content and improvements along the way.
