Chatting with Ausgamer, Prince of Persia's animation director has delivered yet another hint that 2 is in at Montreal. Right now.

David Wilkinson told the website that and Assassin's Creed animator Alex Drouin, was presently engaged "getting Altair to swim".

A new Assassin's Creed was of course never in doubt, Ubisoft chief having hinted at the game previously; although the status of the sequel remains unofficial, and unclear.

"He’s busy making Altair even more beautiful," revealed Wilkinson. "Last thing I saw him do was getting Altair to swim."

More on this chit-chat as we get it.
