Following his commercial success in 2007, it seems that Third Crusade assassin Altair just can't get enough of the limelight.  Not content with making an appearance of sorts in Konami's Metal Gear Solid 4, the parkour-loving character has been revealed as a skin in Ubisoft's original acrobatic franchise, Prince of Persia.

The Altair skin is available to gamers who link their Ubisoft.com account with their PlayStation Network or Xbox Live accounts.

"Prince of Persia is an incredible experience. We're thrilled to give our loyal fans another way to journey through it," said Ben Mattes, producer for Ubisoft's Prince of Persia video game. "This exclusive reward is a 'thank you' to our fans, who can easily unlock it when they link their Ubisoft.com accounts to their Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 gamer identities."

Scheduled to arrive on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on December 5th, Prince of Persia sees a new prince try to stop an evil force from enveloping the ancient world.
