Similar to the God Of War game, when prompted the Prince can initiate an attack from behind or above for a sort of stealth kill. In most cases, the Prince can use the environment and sneak around an enemy to get the drop on them. (I will go more in-depth on this feature in the walkthrough).

When the screen starts to shimmer in cat-vision style, press the TRIANGLE Button to start the kill sequence (the enemy MUST be unaware of your presence or the attack is canceled). During the attack, the screen will turn gray for a split second and the dagger the Prince is holding will shimmer. Press the SQUARE Button each time you see the dagger shimmer to complete the kill sequence.

Some Quick kills have multiple dagger attacks (especially on bigger enemies or multiple ones), so be on your guard when initiating the attack or you will get thrown off. Quick kills can be initiated from top ledges, chains, and wall gaps and are better than melee combat in all ways.

Dark Prince Note

The Dark Prince uses Speed Kills. Unlike the Prince, there is no shimmer on the screen to wait for to kill the enemy.Initiate the kill sequence and when the Dark Prince grabs hold of the enemy, bash the Triangle Button repeatedly to strangle them. Simple!

That’s all you need to know for the Two Thrones. On to the walkthrough!
