The Wii U isn’t Watch Dogs’ lead SKU, but that doesn’t mean it’ll be a lesser experience on Nintendo’s console. According to senior producer Dominic Guay, all versions will feature the same kinds of social features.

“So the connectivity between players with mobile devices, the way you can control the city, the immersion, all those are core and on any platforms we’re going to ship on we’re going to make sure we nail those pillars down.”

Watch Dogs is “already running” on Wii U, thanks to the porting work of Ubisoft Bucharest (Romania). The team previously developed the PC version of Assassin’s Creed III and helped out on Ghost Recon: Future Soldier.

As of now, the team is thinking about how the GamePad can best be implemented into the experience.

“We’re still investigating how we’ll use the tablet on the Wii U, but with the things I mentioned before, for us it’s not going to be a weird stretch. It’s natural. What’s really cool with Watch Dogs, when we start thinking of those devices, it’s not a weird abstraction, it’s not like I’m a space alien and now I’m using a tablet. Why am I doing that? Aiden Pearce is using a device to control the city, so it’s quite easy to imagine what we could do with that.”

In the latest Watch Dogs footage, Ubisoft plastered the URL “chicago-ctos.com” on signs, posters, and other objects in the open-world. This appears to be an actual website. Access it here.

Upon visiting the page, you’ll notice that it says DedSec has seized the site. Graffiti of the DedSec group is shown through graffiti in the latest Watch Dogs video.

The page also includes the quote “Quis custodiet ipsos custodes”. In Latin, this translates to “Who will guard the guards themselves?” or “Who watches the watchmen?”.

Thanks to Jermaine for sending this news our way.

Rumor has it that Rayman creator Michel Ancel could be leaving Ubisoft.

Long story short, Ancel would take a few employees with him – maybe five or six staffers – and start up a new project, perhaps with another company. This would provide Ancel with the opportunity to be more creative.

Ubisoft apparently has some idea that Ancel could be heading down a new path. Even if this does happen, the publisher could in some form.

Gamekult, the source of the speculation, also reports that one reason that Rayman Legends went multiplatform is because Nintendo and Ubisoft were unable to reach an agreement when it came to distributing and marketing of the game.

Ubisoft and Ancel are both denying all rumors for now.
