Irrational Games creative director Ken Levine says new shooter not planned for Nintendo’s HD system; “nothing is brewing” at all for console.
BioShock Infinite will see release for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC, but not Wii U. Irrational Games creative director Ken Levine told Destructoid that the studio has no plans to bring its recently delayed shooter to Nintendo’s first high-definition platform.
As for whether or not Irrational has any Wii U projects at all in development, Levine said “nothing is brewing right now.” The developer said he purchased a Wii U and he enjoys it, but that is the extent of Irrational’s connection to the Wii U.
BioShock is not the only established series that has elected to skip the Wii U. Borderlands 2, Dead Space 3, Resident Evil 6, Lego: Lord of the Rings, and Metro: Last Light will not appear on the console. Additionally, it is not clear if Crysis 3 or Battlefield 3 will ship for the system.
