Just a few weeks ago, High Voltage Software stated that they would soon be receiving their Wii MotionPlus and WiiSpeak development kits. Now, Eric Nofsinger of HVS has gone on record and confirmed that the development team is aiming to include MotionPlus in some form.

“We’re hooking it [MotionPlus] up. We want to support it. Probably for this version of the game there’s not going to be a whole ton of really extensive use of the Wii MotionPlus. For the sequel to the game, we definitely do want to incorporate more melee and things like that. We want to support it…It would be a mistake for a developer to require too many peripherals or things like that. The game has to be fun with just the Wiimote and nunchuck. Even if you don’t have connectivity online, even if you don’t have WiiSpeak, even if you don’t have Wii MotionPlus…if you don’t have anything but your Wii and the game, it’s got to be fun.”

Nofsinger added that “an army of testers working” will be working on trying out The Conduit and the development team wanted to guarantee nothing in the game would be gimmicky. A publisher announcement is coming very soon.
