A recent comment from the developer of Slain: Back from Hell suggested that the game would no longer be on Wii U. Unfortunately, it’s now official.
The game’s official Twitter account provided an update on Twitter, writing that the Wii U version “has been shelved”. It reads:
@HoodooWolf @TheVitaLounge @DigeratiDM WiiU has been shelved unfortunately !

Perhaps one day Slain could make its way to Switch. For now though, it won’t be on any Nintendo platform sadly.

Slain! starting to look unlikely for Wii U
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
It was over a year ago when we heard about Slain! coming to Wii U. Unfortunately, it now seems that it’s unlikely for the eShop.
When asked about the status of Slain! on Wii U, the game’s developer said:
“No, we can’t confirm Wii U date, or that it is happening just yet. We were hoping it would but sales on that platform are just too weak to justify the port from what we have seen.”
Slain! was originally featured in an announcement from Nintendo last March about games in development for the Wii U eShop. In fact, the game still has a listing on Nintendo’s North American website.

Slain! trailer and details
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Videos, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
A new trailer has come in for Wolf Brew Games’ Slain!, which is coming to the Wii U eShop early next year. You can watch it below.
In terms of how Slain! will play on Wii U, the GamePad will “most probably have a pulled out map of the full level and some special way to use mana /switch and switch weapons.”
Another piece of news surrounding Slain! is the project’s new composer. Curt Victor Bryant, a former bassist in the Swiss black metal band Celtic Frost, will be handling the music. Siliconera also reports that the team recently added an ice axe to Slain!, which has blades that morph into a snarling wolf’s head on the final strike.
