Alien: Isolation joins the Wii U no-show list

Creative Assembly’s upcoming survival horror outing Alien: Isolation looks unlikely to be making the jump to Wii U.

When asked about the possibility on Twitter, the game’s official Twitter account replied: Right now, we don’t have plans to put the game on Wii U.”

What makes it all the sadder is that the Wii U’s Gamepad seems like a perfect candidate for some distracting off-screen radar checking living room action.

Sega’s survival horror joins a vast catalogue of multiformat titles on the way in 2014 that are skipping Wii U including Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition, Thief, South Park, Dark Souls 2, The Witcher 3, Metal Gear Solid V, The Elder Scrolls Online, Destiny, Dragon Age: Inquisition, Dying Light and Mirror’s Edge 2.

Multiformat titles that ARE coming out on Wii U include Watch Dogs, The LEGO Movie and The Amazing Spider-man 2.
