1- It's called Prince of Persia but you don't actually play as Prince of Persia
2- It's called Prince of Persia, but the protagonist is African for some reason
3- And more importantly, It's called Prince of Persia but it's Metroidvania (aka boring exploration) with Hollow knight level difficulty.
The only resemblance between this game and the Prince of Persia we know it is the logo.

Don't get me wrong, this is a very good game. And I was having fun in the first couple of hours before it turned into an absolute grind. The bosses have an insane difficulty spike compared to the levels. Their attacks are super fast and they spam all the time. I'm playing on Normal difficulty but it was just a chore. If you turn the difficulty down all you get is less damage and npc with less health, so the balance is completely off. Then comes the platforming, it's good and crispy, until it becomes absolutely tight that it exposes the sluggishness of the controls. Seems like the devs knew that beforehand that they gave an option to completely skip these platforming sections. But if you going to tune down the combat, and skip the platforming, might just skip the whole thing.

On the bright side, the core gameplay is still solid. Attacks and animations are smooth. With multiple fun abilities.

This is a not game for me, and not for the prince of persia fans. It's a game for Hollow Knight fans apparently, and soon they will release a rougelike game for Dead Cells fans. And who knows? Maybe Prince of persia battle royal for Fortnite fans is in development.
