Wii U has not been on parity with other platforms when it comes to Injustice: Gods Among Us DLC. For unknown reasons, the system has been receiving new content later than the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Some of the more recent DLC has also yet to land on Wii U.

It does, at least, look like the situation will be discussed in the near future. NetherRealm Studios creative director Ed Boon said the following on Twitter a short while ago regarding Wii U DLC:

Open-world games have often allowed players to take control of an aircraft and fly around the map. Watch_Dogs, however, has no such vehicles.

Speaking with Examiner, senior producer Dominic Guay said:

“Players will not fly aircrafts in Watch Dogs. We did not feel it was core to the experience we wanted to create.”

You’ll still be able to take control of plenty of other vehicles including trucks, motorcycles, and boats. Such means of transportation will let players “explore the city proper, the rivers, the lake and even beyond the limits of Chicago.”

I wonder what that last bit means…
