It’s been a long wait for Q.U.B.E: Director’s Cut. Despite having been announced over two years ago, the game still has yet to come to the eShop. We were told a couple of months ago that Q.U.B.E. would be out on Wii U in either April or May, but it looks like that won’t be happening.

Grip Games shared an official update pertaining to Q.U.B.E: Director’s Cut today. While we still don’t have a final release date, the developer says that the title should be out sometime this summer.

Cypronia has confirmed that Cube Life: Island Survival is coming to the North American and European Wii U eShops towards the start of June. It’ll come with over 200 items and tools, a variety of wild animals to trade with or slaughter, local inhabitants, a day/night cycle, and online rankings.

Cube Life: Island Survival will be priced at $14.99 / €14.99. However, a special launch discount of $6.99 / €6.99 will be offered.

Cypronia CEO Stefan Pavelka said:

If we compare the game to competitors, other Wii U games of that genre, we will offer much more fun and greater value, either by means of lower price or by providing more content and features.

Icy Wind Games, a two-man indie developer from Sweden, is developing its first game titled “Heroes, Help!” for the Wii U eShop.

Heroes, Help! is an action-adventure experience that has players setting off on an adventure with three friends to save the princess following her capture. They’ll be gathering gold to purchase new weapons and equipment, discovering secret areas and hidden treasures, defeating bosses, and obtaining clues to find the princess’ location.

In terms of features, Heroes, Help! will offer four-player co-op, over ten levels, player customization for weapons and equipment, achievements, and support for various controllers. The game will run at 60 frames-per-second, and the team is targeting 1080p resolution.

Heroes, Help! will launch in Q1 2016. A few screenshots are in the gallery.
