Disney Interactive vice president and general manager of production Bill Roper states, “It’s exciting to bring Nintendo fans ‘Disney Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two’ on Nintendo’s revolutionary new game system. The technological advances of the Wii U system have allowed us to enhance player direction and provide our fans with an immersive as well as unique gaming experience.”
The new co-op play sets to introduce a “PlayStyle Matters” approach, pioneered by Warren Spector where “players tackle challenges the way they want to in order to explore a variety of possibilities and storylines, but always with consequences for their chosen actions”.
The Wii U GamePad will provide a real-time map of Wasteland with way-points and markers to help guide players through the different quests and side-quests. It also allows players to utilize sketches within the game
