Ubisoft is really pulling out all the stops in releasing Prince of Persia come December (ooh, just a few more weeks now!). Today, they announced via press release a whole lineup of pre-order freebies for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC versions of the game. Sweet!

The Collector’s Edition (seen above) is a PLAY.com-exclusive item though. And what do pre-ordering customers get in their bonus pack?

• A high quality collector box set featuring varnish & metallic blue arabesque finish
