Area Effect has announced “Izle”, the studio’s new 3D action-adventure game for Wii U and other gaming platforms.

Here’s the official overview:

Izle invites its players to build their own world by summoning the power of the gods and terraforming a variety of islands. Each unique island is randomly created and ready for players to explore, harness abilities and forge items into endless possibilities to create new character classes. Izle is currently in its Alpha stage.

Developed and published by Area Effect, a studio made up of Ubisoft veterans, Izle players will use terraforming to build their own unique island worlds. Players will acquire new items and abilities and combine them into endless possibilities to create their very own class. But with great freedom comes great responsibility, and if not defended, the kingdom will be shattered by the forces of shadows!

Area Effect founder Alexis Bacot said of today’s announcement:

“Izle is truly a passion project for us, and we are so proud of the reaction we have received at its early stages. Izle is a very ambitious project that we are excited to see come to life as our development continues and as the Izle community grows and flourishes.”

A Kickstarter for Izle will launch this spring “to support the development of the Steam and Next Gen Console versions.” Whether or not this includes Wii U funding is unclear.

Izle will be available sometime in 2016 via the eShop.

A few years ago, THQ’s promising-looking Avengers game was leaked. It was later presumed that the first-person co-op beat ‘em up title would have made its way to Wii U.

Unseen 64 filed a new report on the canned Avengers game today with tons of information and assets pertaining to the project. Regarding Nintendo-specific plans, the site says that “plans for an eventual Wii U version of the game were drawn”, but “development on it had yet to begin”. It would have been a port of the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 release “with extensive” implementation of the GamePad.
