Now this is looking interesting.
Although the Prince of Persia franchise has been quiet of late, Ubisoft have clearly been at hard at work expanding the franchise for the future, and the first shots of the newest title in the series have finally been revealed.
Revealed recently in a French gaming magazine, the art style is (thankfully) far removed from the angsty, goth-ridden imagery that suffocated later titles in the franchise's original trilogy run.
The new title's graphics have a subtle cel-shading undertone that seems to be closely echo the style of the now defunct Clover's classic title Okami, with a focus on small details and expression over sharp, high-definition realism, possibly in an attempt to distance the title from the developer's recent success story Assassin's Creed.
Whatever the intent, it's certainly looking good, and hopefully this new visual approach will be accepted openly by fans.
No official gameplay details have been revealed (unless you're fluent in French and can translate this), and formats have yet to be confirmed, but Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 seem the most likely formats for this title to appear on.
We'll keep you updated as we find out more.

Im intreiged a little by this....I've not played much of these games, and I've always been a little skeptical of the whole thing.
I might give it a chance later though.... |

See now, I really wished I finished French schooling because this I could probably translate then. I could give it a whirl if you'd like but I doubt the information would be much more than what you've already got. The other thing I was able to figure after briefly looking at them was some mentioning of a "new gameplay". oO |
