Watch Dogs is still coming to Wii U, hopefully this year
So while Ubisoft has set a release date for Watch Dogs for May 27th that was confirmed for X-Box 360, X-Box one, PS4, PS3, and PC. Nothing set in stone for the Wii U yet. Ubisoft made sure to mention that the game is still coming out for the Wii U. Why is it taking longer for the Wii U version to come out?
Dominic Guay, a senior producer of Watch Dogs had this to say. “We have our studio in Bucharest working on it, and we wanted that team to have the time to explore the GamePad and be able to have fun with it and see how far they could push it,” he continues by saying. “It’s also an interesting platform, because it has its own strength, which we want to take advantage of, and we didn’t want to delay all the other platforms for that one. So we’re going to take the time we need to make sure the game is good when we ship it and that it also, game design-wise, makes good use of the specifics of the Wii U.”
Because of the delay for the Wii U Ubisoft had to once again confirm the game for the console. So for those who plan to get the game for Wii U, you can relax because it’s still coming. Ubisoft is just taking extra time to take advantage of the Wii U gamepad. As for when it will come out Guay said. “We don’t have a specific ship date for it yet so it’s considered within the year”
