The video game was already announced, but gamers had to wait until this weekend for a trailer to hit. In The Forgotten Sands, Ubisoft has elected to deviate from the storyline established in 2008′s Prince of Persia and is revisiting Sands of Time canon.

Not a lot is shown in the trailer, just a whole lot of sand and what appears to be the parkour style platforming the series is known for, though the graphics are not in-game. However, the trailer does give off a vibe of being a film tie-in. The Forgotten Sands is slated to hit stores at the same time as the upcoming Sands of Time movie by Mike Newell.

Those of us who stayed until after the credits in Batman: Arkham Asylum pretty much knew this was coming. The sequel rumours started circulating once the first sales numbers hits, and Rocksteady did indeed say they were doing a sequel if the game sold well enough.

Apparently the sales were good enough because Batman: Arkham Asylum 2 was announced at the Spike VGAs on Saturday. The trailer hints at the game’s set in a small part of Gotham City, which Joker and his henchmen have taken control of. Harley Quinn also returns.
