Check out one of the Prince's early adventures in Prince of Persia: The Shadow and the Flame for iOS

If you're a big Prince of Persia fan, you'll already be aware that Ubisoft released a remake of the Prince's very first adventure on the App Store back in 2011.

Now, the French studio is remastering Prince of Persia 2: The Shadow and the Flame and bringing that to the iPhone and iPad, too.

Set 11 days after its predecessor, this sequel - once again - thrusts you into the role of the heroic Prince, and asks you to battle your way across a mysterious foreign island in search of an even more mysterious woman.

The original MS-DOS release of Prince of Persia 2 was ported to the SNES in 1996, and subsequently released with higher resolution graphics on Apple's Mac.

This iOS port features 14 levels spread across a number of "state-of-the-art" environments and gesture-based controls, as well as a bunch of new weapons and powers.

There are Game Center leaderboards, too.

We don't currently have a price or indeed a release date for Prince of Persia: The Shadow and the Flame, but - as always - we'll let you know as soon as we do.
