Ghost Recon Online still in development for Wii U
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Lost in the shuffle of E3 news was the absence of Ghost Recon Online for Wii U. It was one of the earliest games confirmed for the console, but it was a no-show at this year’s expo.
That doesn’t mean the Wii U game has been cancelled, however. Ubisoft senior vice president of sales and marketing Tony Key has discussed the company’s plans for the game, explaining that it intends to finish the PC edition first and then move on to the Wii U project.
According to Key:
“Ghost Recon Online is being developed for the PC first. That was always the plan. The team is taking a little bit longer than they thought they would to get Ghost Recon Online to the level and quality that they want and that definitely has had an impact on how much time they’re able to spend on the Wii U version because we want to make sure we get it right.
“If we start working on the Wii U too soon, we might end up wasting a lot of resources because the PC is a lot easier to test and learn with. Ghost Recon Online on the PC, we can test and learn with that and apply all the best benefits we learn onto the Wii U version to make sure that it’s a great Wii U game. That’s an unusual product for a console and we want to make sure we nail it. It really is because the PC team is a lot of the same guys that will work on the Wii U.”
