Nnooo Confirm September 2014 Launch Date for Cubemen 2 (Wii U)

-

Aussie developer/publisher Nnooo have confirmed that their next title, Cubemen 2 for the Wii U, will be released in Australia, the Americas and Europe from September 4th, 2014. While not available via retail stores, the digital-exclusive game will be available via the Nintendo eShop at a price of AUD$10.49 / USD$7.99 / €7.99 / £6.99. Cubemen 2 has been described as a fast-paced 3D strategy game in which the player controls an army of Cubemen, using them to battle against enemies in a range of modes.

This is a pretty special release for the Wii U, as it will be the first game on a Nintendo console that features cross-platform multiplayer and user generated content. Players will be able to enter online matches and create and share user-generated levels regardless of which platform they are using. Players on the Wii U version will be able to battle against other players who own the game on Wii U, PC, Linux, Mac or iOS device.

Developed for all platforms by Melbourne-based studio ‘3 Sprockets’, Cubemen 2 is already available on Steam and iOS platforms. ll levels can be played in single player mode against AI or with up to 6 players online (with AI filling any empty slots). There are 7 modes which can be played solo and 5 of these are available in online multiplayer. Online modes cover both team and individual player battles. Players will also be able to create and share their own levels using the game’s built-in level editor. Wii U players will have access to all user-generated levels created on other platforms since the release of the game. There are currently over 8,000 user-generated levels to play. The game also includes specific level themes, customisable Cubemen skins and a global ranking system.

Cubemen 2 is not just a fantastic game, it’s breaking new ground for an indie game on a Nintendo console. We already know Nintendo players love to create and share amazing artwork and creations in Miiverse. Now they can create levels, share them and battle with other players across multiple platforms! This is great, not only for Nintendo gamers, but for gaming in general.

It’s been fantastic working with Nic and Bruce at Nnooo and Nintendo to get Cubemen 2 ported over to Wii U. It’s such a great console to develop for and it’s a blast to see Cubemen 2 up and running on the TV. The mix of touch and Wii U GamePad controls is a perfect fit for the fast multiplayer gameplay. This has also been our first experience working with a publisher and the guys at Nnooo have been awesome to work with, allowing us to focus on the development side with total confidence that everything else was being taken care of for us.
