Video: A look into Ubisoft’s unreleased Wii U game Know Your Friends
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Videos, Wii U | 0 comments
In 2014, Ubisoft mentioned that it had been sitting on a Wii U game for several months. It was completely finished, and was just a matter of when it would release.
Ultimately, Ubisoft chose not to publish the title. After it was clarified that the game was primarily aimed at “families and friends”, it was never officially announced. Footage did end up leaking a year later in February 2015 after it was outed as Know Your Friends.
DidYouKnowGaming? and Liam Robertson have now taken a closer look at Know Your Friends, which did not ship primarily due to slow Wii U sales. Watch the full report below.

Monolith Soft interested in another Xenoblade sequel, X sequel, and an original project
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Switch, Wii U | 0 comments
The physical version of Xenoblade Chronicles 2’s soundtrack debuted in Japan this week. Included inside is a booklet, which features a discussion with Monolith Soft boss Tetsuya Takahashi and Koh Kojima, who has been a director on all of the Xenoblade games.
It’s not entirely clear which of the two said it, but it sounds like Takahashi spoke about his interests for future projects. He mentioned wanting to create another Xenoblade sequel, a sequel to Xenoblade Chronicles X, and also making a brand new original story project from scratch.
Last August, Monolith Soft began recruiting for an ambitious new project. Takahashi has also previously expressed interest in bringing Xenoblade Chronicles X to Switch.
