Ubisoft had previously tagged the new Prince of Persia game for release this Holiday season, offering no specific timeframe or time period. However, the company had spoken to EuroGamer about the release date, noting that it will be out sometime between the beginning of October and end of December, which is basically the “Holiday” season that I referred to earlier.

The game is in development for PC, PS3, Xbox 360 and DS, and will feature a different vision for the series than that of the Sands of Time trilogy. It will be more of a “poetic vision” that what we’ve seen earlier in the series, with the player tasked with cleansing the land Okami-style. This time around the focus will be on one-on-one combat rather than crowd control.

More information on the game is expected from the upcoming Ubidays event, which runs from 28 to 29^th May.
