According to a report on 1up.com this morning, Ubisoft's forthcoming adventure/platform title, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time will include unlockable versions of previous titles in the long-running series, adding an extra incentive to progress through the title.

The report suggests that the version of the game will include the full original, the edition will get 2, whilst GBA/Cube owners can expect the original and rejuvenated health when GBA and Cube are linked.

The Sands of Time will also include a re-make of one of the original game's favourite levels, again for the unlocking.

GBA owners will get their hands on this latest outing on November 14th, the PS2 version debuts on November 21st, and the should be on the receiving end come December 5th. The Cube and Xbox versions will have to wait until the new year, as The Sands of Time is PS2 'exclusive' for the duration of 2003.
