"Potential" for POP spin-offs - Princess of Persia, anyone?

Eurogamer writes: "She may be making her gaming debut as a supporting character in the new Prince of Persia, but the game's producer has revealed that the back-story and game universe are deep enough that Elika could ultimately become the star of her own game.

Talking up the narrative scope of Ubisoft Montreal's "second reinvention" of the classic Jordan Mechner-created action-adventure, Ben Mattes revealed to us how the team has prepared the fiction to pave the way for future titles.

"We wanted to create a universe like Lord of the Rings, [where] everything has a back story, a purpose, a raison d'etre," he explained. 'Any one of those things, theoretically, any of the bosses, regions, have the potential to spin off into something.'"
