The original 1989 classic Prince of Persia is set for a spruce up and re-launch to the Xbox Live Arcade system.
Ubisoft have announced a target season of this southern winter for a release of an all time classic 2D platform game, Prince of Persia.
With the game set to include all the diabolic puzzles, traps and enemies of the original, with a fresh coat of 21st century graphical paint and some added content, this will be a hard down-load to resist, still waiting for confirmation on the Microsoft points cost though.
As a refresher here is the official story outline from Ubisoft; While the Sultan of Persia is away for a war, the evil Vizier seizes the throne for himself. He has also imprisoned the beautiful Princess and has given her an hour to decide her fate – marry him or die. As the courageous Prince, you have 60 minutes to complete the mission of saving the Princess from her deadly fate.
