The violent, action-packed Prince of Persia games we all know and love will be completely redone on the Nintendo DS. The game, Battles of Prince of Persia, will feature a card based system of gameplay. You get to control units and troops in a Tactics form of gameplay very similar to Advance Wars and Fire Emblem. Actions will be done through special cards, similar to Baten Kaitos. No info has been given of these mysterious cards' backgrounds, but we can expect more details soon. It was also said that new rules for this style of gameplay are being done specifically for this game.
The game's graphics will have a new cel-shaded look to them as apposed to the refined, realistic feel of past games. From the screenshots we've seen so far, the bottom screen appears to show a map and the top screen will show all the action of the battles taking place.
Many familiar characters from both The Sands of Time and Warrior Within are said to appear in this game as it's supposedly going to fill in the gap between these two games.
In the game's story, the Prince is said to have accidentally started a war between Persia and India. He supposedly released some sort of ancient evil (Sound familiar?) again that he must stop. The source that I got the info of the story from was fairly vague, so I'm not sure how this ancient evil plays into it. They stated that it was released when the Prince fought the Dahaka, but the way they worded the sentence didn't make much sense. We'll keep you posted with more details of this when we learn more of it.
The DS' single cartridge wireless system will allow multiplayer head to head battles in this game. It was also said that a "Hot Shot" mode with a single DS will be available, similar to Advance Wars. You may also trade cards with your friends over wi-fi, as long as each player has their own copy of the game (unless you want to trade cards with yourself...). A single player capaign will also be featured in this game.
