Ubisoft unveils its 7 Wii titles

[i0n]

If you read through the news forum yesterday you have no doubt read the post regarding Ubisofts announcement of developing 7 game titles for the Wii.

Well today they've announced exactly what those titles are.

The 7 actually include the already announced Red Steel and Rayman Raving Rabbids titles with the addition of:

• Far Cry
• Blazing Angels: Squadrons of WWII, a military dog fight sim
• Monster 4x4 World Circuit, a truck racer
• Open Season, an adventure game based on the upcoming CG film by Sony Pictures Animation
• GT Pro Series, a new racing IP

All titles are scheduled for release in the launch window and is a pretty impressive line-up from a 3rd party developer. Ubisoft also mentioned they have many more titles in development for the Wii console.

I remember a few months back reports of not many 3rd party developers getting on board with the Wii console, but by the sounds of Ubisofts enthusiasm i dont think this is the case anymore.

IGN have posted up an interview with Ubisofts North American President, you can read the article here

Gosh this is great/terrible news. Now launch day is going to be even more difficult because I'll have to pick from so many great games!!!

Wonder if these will be online? IGN asked Ubisoft and they said to stay tuned for that info. You're killing me slowly, Ubisoft.

IGN has 2 pics from Monster 4x4 Does anyoneelse think Wii will have lots of racing games.
List of what we know:
Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam
Excite Truck
Monster 4x4
GT Pro Series
New Mario Kart very likely
New F-Zero game likely

I just hope they're all different for each other and a lot of fun.I know F-Zero would be the hardest of the bunch.

Well, welcome to WiiChat!!! Don't worry, you're new here and thus you can not be made fun of, atleast by me.

Anyway, yes, Red Steel is supposed to have atleast 2-player split-screen, says Ubisoft (sorry, can't find on IGN where I read this, but it's a given).

They've also said multiplayer, which could mean 2-4 player split-screen and many are guessing it will have online play.

Hope that helps.

what about co-op. i really liked how halo, timesplitters, and a few other games had co-op story mode and im hoping a lot more games have it
