Over at this year’s E3, Ubisoft has released a new video of their upcoming Prince of Persia title for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC platforms. The clip will provide for more glimpses of how your new partner, Elika, will handle in combat.

Aerial ballet is an understatement in this case, with Elika jumping in at well-timed moments to unleash some painful-looking magical smackdowns on your enemy. You’ll still be in the spotlight of course, but your partner definitely merits some attention of her own.

One other visual tweak that’s been introduced is the cell shading. While it’s unclear if this will be how the game’s final build will look, admittedly, I do hope it is. Aside from adding subtle hints of storybook flair, it does make the whole thing look like an anime. The new Prince of Persia trailer is available for your viewing pleasure below.
