Prince of Persia 3 trailer

And new screenshots.

A new trailer for the third instalment in Ubisoft's Prince of Persia series is now available on Eurofiles. You can also see some new screenshots here.

Prince of Persia: Kindred Blades sees our hero returning to Babylon with the lovely Kaileena, only to discover that war has ravaged the land and everyone hates him. Cast out onto the streets and hunted as a fugitive, the Prince soon learns that the spirit of a deadly Dark Prince is beginning to possess him.

Which means, neatly, that you get to play as two different characters, each with unique fighting styles and weapons. As you might expect there's lots of jumping across rooftops, defeating powerful enemies and messing about with time to be done, with a bit of stealth action thrown into the mix.

Prince of Persia: Kindred Blades is due out on PC, PS2, Xbox, GameCube and GBA this autumn.
