Coinciding with the release of the upcoming movie Prince of Persia, Ubisoft announced a new video game to be released under the popular game brand. Well, it's actually it a new installment in the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time series. The game is going to appeal to both hardcore and casual gamers, according to Ubisoft. "The goal is to reach both audiences, the core and casual gamers. It will be a game that will have lots of combat, with the possibility for gamers that are not as good - a level for beginners. In that sense we are trying to cover both groups," said Ubi's CEO Yves Guillemot recently.

You can check out the debut trailer for Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands is expected to appear on Spike TV's Video Game Awards on Saturday, December 12, 2009 at 8 p.m. EST.

The game hits consoles and handhelds during May 2010.
