Curve bringing The Swindle to Wii U later this year

Curve Digital has yet another game planned for Wii U. The Swindle, a steampunk heist game developed by Size Five Games, will be released on the console (and other platforms) later this year.

Here’s the official overview:

The Swindle is a mixture of platform, action and stealth gameplay. Players will be breaking into buildings, hacking their systems, stealing their cash and then charging to the nearest exit to the sound of alarms and breaking glass. The buildings and levels you’ll be exploring are all procedurally-generated, and players will be able to upgrade their thief with new skills and tools after every job allowing them to take on bigger buildings with more elaborate security.

The Swindle was first announced for PC back in 2011, and ended up being cancelled since Size Five Games owner Dan Marshall was unable to make the various elements hold together in a way he was pleased with. However, after fans expressed their disappointment, it was resurrected last October. This new version has been completely rebuilt and focuses on procedurally-generated thieves and levels.
