In two weeks' time, Ubisoft will be giving gamers around the globe a look at the Prince of Persia's new, decidedly illustrated, clothes. Not one to quickly scamper back to his palace, however, the prince is apparently in line to receive a substantial chunk of downloadable content as well.

In an interview with Gamersyde, Ubisoft Montreal producer Ben Mattes revealed that, if all goes according to plan, Prince of Persia will receive an add-on experience, perhaps in 2009. "We certainly have plans for downloadable content," said Mattes. "We can't really say more than that right now."

Not to belie that statement, the producer went ahead and said some more anyway. "The intention is to do downloadable content that adds significant value, so I don't think you'll see downloadable content of a new skin or a new weapon or something like that," he continued. "If we're going to do it, it's going to be a new story, a new experience, maybe a prequel, maybe a sequel. We're going to do something that really offers a lot of value for the player."

Prince of Persia is expected to arrive on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC on December 2. For more on the game, check out GameSpot's recently published preview.
