Warner Bros. announced an online multiplayer component for Batman: Arkham Origins today. Surely this significant feature will be coming to Wii U, right? Well, not exactly…

As far as I can tell, Origins’ online multiplayer will not be available on Wii U. Warner Bros.’s announcement only mentions the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC, and the official trailer is also conspicuously absent of a Wii U logo.

I’m not quite sure what reason there would be to keep Batman: Arkham Origins’ online multiplayer off Wii U, but we’ll try to get some answers.

Once again, we have a look at Nintendo’s most up=to-date release schedule thanks to items provided in the company’s latest NPD report. There aren’t too many highlights this time around, but one release window in particular does stick out.

When Nintendo announced Bravely Default for the west a few months ago, the plan was to have it out in Europe before the end of 2013. Now, like North America, it would appear that the 3DS RPG won’t be available until next year.
