KickBeat isn’t 100% confirmed for Wii U, but based on this week’s USK rating, I’m almost certain that an announcement will be made in the near future.
Dead Pixel Entertainment will soon be revealing Starbeast, its new title slated exclusively for the Wii U eShop. The studio’s Ravi Jayant confirmed via Twitter:

Starbeast is a 2D shooter with “bullet hell” gameplay. Metroid and Gradius are said to be among the project’s influences.
Starbeast’s reveal doesn’t have a specific date yet, but we’ll keep you updated with any developments that arise.
