Update: Ubisoft has announced that the Wii U version has been delayed.
Original: Watch Dogs has received a slightly more specific launch window.
As noted by Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot in the company’s third quarter earnings announcement, it’ll hit store shelves in the first fiscal quarter. That means Watch Dogs will be available between April and June.
Guillemot’s statement in full:
“Fiscal 2014-15 will see an exceptional games line-up, with the release of five major titles including Just Dance, The Crew and Watch Dogs, which is scheduled for release in the first fiscal quarter.”

Update: Indie-related – ONM’s Wii U game tease isn’t Sonic Boom
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 9 Comments
Update: Castle has confirmed that the tease is indie-related.
To clarify: next month Wii U remark relates to something indie and cool, though contents are subject to change based on developer wishes.
— Matthew Castle (@MatthewONM) February 9, 2014
Original: ONM is teasing a new Wii U title for its next issue. While the magazine itself didn’t offer much in the way of hints, editor Matthew Castle has ruled out one possibility.
Castle confirmed on Twitter that the mystery game isn’t related to Sonic Boom. He said:
@Joshawott It isn't Sonic, no, but what it is may no longer be relevant. Contents subject to change, as always.
— Matthew Castle (@mrbasil_pesto) February 8, 2014
The comment “what it is may no longer be relevant” is a bit interesting. Perhaps an attempt to lower expectations? Could it be some other Wii U title we recently heard about such as Art of Balance? Or maybe we’ll be hearing about the game before the next issue of ONM is out?
