Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is in development for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, but not Wii U. Producer Yuji Korekado confirmed to Kotaku that the game isn’t in development for the console.

But why? When asked for an explanation, Korekado said:

“We really developed the game based on these two consoles [PS3, 360] and the Wii U, we think, is unique in a way that the controller is innovative and the entire console’s pretty much not hand-in-hand with the consoles that we’re making it for now. So if we were going to make it for the Wii U we’d have to start from zero again and really design something for that console, so we could say 100% that it was a good game for this console.”

Korekado was then asked if Wii U could run the Revengeance engine.

Korekado replied:

“I haven’t really tried it, so I’m not quite sure.”

Jones told Player Attack:

“I think that… if we focussed in on [Wii U], the experience on it could be superior, in my mind, to the other two consoles.”

Quick heads up: we have to do another round of maintenance on NE/GE tomorrow. Some caching stuff still needs to be addressed. Most of you may not notice anything at all while this is taking place, but if anything seems out of whack, be aware that it’s intentional!
