CastleStorm will launch on Wii U on December 26, Zen Studios has announced. That date applies to both North America and Europe.

All functionality is available without touch as well, using the sticks and action buttons. In local multiplayer, one player uses the Pro Controller and looks at the TV, the other player uses the GamePad and plays on the Gamepad screen.
CastleStorm will be available for $9.99 / €9.99.
