One of my absolute favorites as a kid (nostalgia overload). Ubisoft sucks in that there's no innate controller support, but shout out to timtheenchanter5699 for creating a community layout that mimics the Playstation controls. Even though this game could legally drink in The States, it's worth playing if you're interested in acrobatic combat and platforming. It's also the best one in the series both in regards to game design and the story told. Honestly, you could just play this one and not bother with the others (Sands of Time has overly simplistic combat, The Two Thrones has really cringe cutscenes, and The Forgotten Sands was just a cash grab--of course, if you love this game you'll still enjoy the others but just don't go into them thinking they're as good as Warrior Within).

Prince of Persia Warrior within is quite old, it is released in 2004 but even in 2025, this game is still fun.

Positive:
1. Interesting darker, intense story, the sequel of Sand of time.
2. Great gameplay, mc is flexible, he can parkour many types of platform, and fight in many ways, defend, roll, etc
3. Dahaka is a terrific antagonist and terror.
4. Graphic was good for 2004.
5. OST pretty good, rock n roll style...although I prefer more on traditional Persian music style.

Neutral:
Female's clothes in this game are bit skimpy, although I am ok with it but for realistic battle, might be better to put leather armor on the queen.

Negative:
1. Sometimes guide to next destination is not that clear.
2. Camera should be improved, I made some mistakes on jumping etc since camera view is not that clear.
3. This is minor, but I disagree a bit with the procedure to get Good ending. I think the procedure can be simplified like 1-3 condition instead of this many.

Until this point, I would grade this game to be high 8.5 out of 10, very good....unfortunately this build is old and has some technical issues.

Technical issues:
1. Controller not supported, I need to map controller keypad manually to be able to play with controller.
2. During loading save point, game sometimes freeze, I resolve this by turning off and on V sync.
3. Cannot jump wall to wall Descending, since game option does not have FPS setting, I resolve this by setting my NVIDIA setting to lock 60 FPS for this game.
4. No resolution available for big and wide screen resolution.

Overall for this old build with tech issues, I still recommend but with lowered grade 7/10 due to technical issues, maybe get this on sale...

Nevertheless I am impressed with this old game and reminded me how great AAA companies such as Ubisoft, EA were. Prince Persia Warrior Within is an old game (2004) but I still enjoy playing it at 2025 and now understand why many fans likes Warrior Within.

PS: Beside Prince Persia series, ghost recon, splinter cell, assassin creed etc....it is a shame that Ubisoft quality in 2020s declined a lot. I hope current Ubisoft able to become back like the good old Ubisoft again somehow...

Esse é um dos meus jogos favoritos de PS2, mas na situação que está, isso aqui é quase injogável. Parte de mim não consegue acreditar que a Ubisoft simplesmente colocou o jogo de qualquer jeito pra pc. A câmera é P É S S I M A .
Eu ainda tenho meu PS2 e fui testar pra ver se eu estava vendo o jogo com lentes de nostalgia, mas isso aqui é mal adaptação mesmo, do tipo que dá pra ver que o esforço é zero. Isso sem contar outros bugs. Se você for no youtube ou na comunidade aqui da steam provavelmente tem alguma alma bondosa que trabalhou em correções, mas sinceramente, isso é o trabalho da empresa.
Completamente ridículo. Amo a franquia, mas se você comprar isso aqui, não é pra jogar, é pra ficar de enfeite na sua biblioteca.
