Ubisoft confirmed yesterday that Valiant Hearts: The Great War™, the puzzle-adventure game set during the World War I made with UbiArt Framework engine, will release on June 25th, 2014. It also posted a new trailer, which by the end listed the plataforms where it is going to be available. The Wii U wasn't among them.

While third party games skipping Wii U hardly sounds as a surprise nowdays, this one got me perplexed.
UbiArt is one of the little hopes of third part support on Wii U, because:

- It is not very hardware demanding and also seems easier to develop to.
- Rayman Legends, despite not being a hit overall, found on Wii U it second best performance retail wise
  • PS3 - 0.36
  • Wii U - 0.32
  • X360 - 0.26
  • PS4 - 0.12
  • XOne - 0.06
  • PSV - 0.05
- Child of Light debuted at third place on Wii U eShop Charts (5/6/2014)
- Overall, Ubisoft has been reasonably more supportive than most thirds

 

It could be the case of a late reveal though. We saw that before with CoD: Ghosts and Watch Dogs for an example, not being announced in their reveals. They could be waiting for Mario Kart 8 or E3 too

What do you think? (Going to add a poll soon enough)
