Posted By | On 13th, Sep. 2012

Check out the launch titles for the Wii U developed by Ubisoft. There’s a Rayman Legends interview as well which will be released when the Wii U comes out on November 30 in the EU.

Ubisoft showcased titles such as Assassin’s Creed III, Rayman Legends, and the survival-thriller and platform-exclusive ZombiU, and is positioned to be the leading third-party on Nintendo’s flagship system. Exciting new gameplay features were revealed for ZombiU and Rayman Legends, helping to showcase the unique capabilities of the Wii U console and Wii U GamePad.

Check out the description of the two games below along with the Rayman Legends interview which follows them.

ZombiU: New footage from this exclusive survival horror first-person shooter revealed the Tower of London location and the Survival Mode in which the player only has one life to survive. The new video also showed the Weapon Crafting feature that allows players to customize their equipment directly on the GamePad, the use of a Spraycan to leave messages made up from symbols for other players, plus new online features in which online friends who are turned into zombies will then turn up in the player’s game. At launch, a limited edition “Wii U ZombiU Premium Pack” will be made available that includes the game along with a black Wii U console, and a black Wii U Pro Controller.

Rayman Legends: A video featuring series creator Michel Ancel highlighted how this new 2D platformer creates a new gameplay dynamic due to the different roles players take on depending on which controller they use. The capabilities of the Wii U GamePad allow for a very tactile interaction with the game world such as pulling objects, turning parts of the level around, or shielding other players, and requires ongoing communication between all players to succeed.
