Prince of Persia: the Lost Crown was probably the best Metroidvania I've ever played. A lot of critics agree.
Ubisoft dismantled their team after they didn't meet sales expectations.
The game itself was amazing and made its way onto a lot of Game of the Year lists. If it underperformed, it was either a failure of their marketing department, or a failure to set realistic sales goals.
The reason I didn't get the game was their launcher that's mandatory for all Ubisoft games. I have not bought a single Ubisoft game since they forced the launcher on us and I will never do so.
