Darksiders Warmastered Edition made it out on various platforms last November. Unfortunately, the Wii U version still hasn’t launched, and publisher THQ Nordic has been keeping quiet about the situation in recent weeks.

On the bright side, Darksiders Warmastered Edition is still on track for Wii U. THQ Nordic told one fan on Twitter that it hasn’t been cancelled.

THQ Nordic explained to us last year that “optimizing the game for the Wii U is still a tough task.” The team “made the call of releasing it properly and the only conclusion was to delay it.”

A panel for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild will be held at GDC 2017, Nintendo announced today. Game director Hidemaro Fujibayashi, art director Satoru Takizawa, and technical director Takuhiro Dohta will be on hand for the panel, named “Change and Constant – Breaking Conventions with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild”. The event “will provide an in-depth look at how these convention-breaking changes were implemented.”

Nintendo will host the panel between 11 AM to 12:30 PM local time on March 1 at the Moscone Center. It doesn’t sound like a live stream will be offered, but it will be shown on the GDC Vault site the following week.
