Prince of Persia Headed For Nintendo’s Next-Gen Console

It’s been confirmed: Prince of Persia is coming to the Wii.

“I can confirm that a game based on the popular Prince of Persia franchise is one of many titles Ubisoft has in development for Nintendo’s Wii.”

These were the words a spokesperson from Ubisoft told IGN today. Last week, Ubisoft announced that it will support the launch of Nintendo Wii with seven titles. Prince of Persia was not among the titles in the official press release. Apparently, the Prince project was left off last week’s announcement because it will not be a Wii launch title.

This is great news for fans of the Prince’s swashbuckling moves. All that sword-swinging and those sweet acrobatics would be a perfect fit for the Wii controller. Without a doubt, the Prince has really gone forward quite a ways from his sidescrolling roots.

Ubisoft does not have release date or additional details for the game just yet, so we’ll just have to sit tight and wait.
