ZombiU has a big twist toward the end of the game. Story director Gabrielle Shrager won’t say what it is, but did note that skilled players may be able to discover it before it’s officially revealed in the game.
“There is a twist. ZombiU is a thriller, but only the most persistent and best-prepared survivors will discover what the twist is before the reveal.”
Given how important the twist is, Shrager hopes that Miiverse won’t lead to spoilers for new players:
“I’m sure the first survivors won’t resist the urge to spill the beans, but I hope others won’t spoil it for themselves.”
Some consumers have been receiving emails from Best Buy stating that Assassin’s Creed III has been pushed back on Wii U. That’s resulted in speculation regarding an official delay, but those rumors have now been debunked.
The official word from Ubisoft is that Assassin’s Creed III is still planned to launch alongside Wii U. So if you were planning on picking up the game with the new console, you should still be able to do so.
