Assassin’s Creed IV Wii U visuals in between current/next-gen, compatible with companion app

Assassin’s Creed producer Martin Schelling and lead game designer Jean-Sebastien Decant have spoke a little about the Wii U visuals found in Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag.

The two told ExpansiveDLC that the game is somewhere between current-gen and next-gen versions. It’s also been confirmed that the game’s companion app will be compatible with the Wii U release.

“It will be I think, in between the current gen and next gen consoles. We could have had some of the tools from the companion on the second screen, but because the companion app will be available with Wii U too we didn’t include them.”
