For anyone disappointed with the length of the excellent Prince of Persia from last month, Ubisoft have just announced DLC for the game set to arrive on 26th February.
There will be a new area, known as the Underground palace, where the Prince and Elika will be able to make use of a new combat manoeuvre, and a new power. This ‘Epic adventure’ is set to be more than 3 hours in length, but this probably an overestimated figure for the length of a single area. New skins for the characters complete the pack, rounding out to produce a welcome post release slice of content.
Let’s hope that the price isn’t too extravagant though, as this is still unknown at this point. Either way, new content for such a great game will be welcomed with open arms by most fans. Hit the jump for more information on the extra content included.
