New ZombiU screen shots and concept artwork shuffle in photo



SDCC has come and gone, and in its wake a trail of missed screen shots and concept art for ZombiU! Showcasing some zombie designs and blood spattered atmospheres, these come hot on the heels of a set of new trailers, each giving an impression of what gameplay will be like when the title launches with the Wii U this upcoming holiday season. 

Of course, neither depict what is arguably the game's best feature: the rotating cast of survivors. Once your player character is bitten, you'll not only have to choose a new one to move forward, but also have to defeat your last, who has now turned into a zombie. It's a brilliant flourish and one that I hope is indicative of the creativity we'll see in gameplay.

Every time I see anything related to ZombiU, I get extremely excited. I can't wait for this game.
JQM78
Played it here at a club nintendo event in chicago last Friday... its ok, needs some work to be ready for launch...

New smb u is lame... same as all the other games..

Wii u might be a console I can wait for..
L0LFAQ
The game actually looks artistically great. The art really builds a decent horror atmosphere, the nurseries and crap are kinda creepy and all the zombies and stuff are nice and detailed. I'm excited as all hell for the Wii U solely because I really just want to see HD Nintendo games.
EKGProd
I just read a quote from some Ubisoft big wig that said they weren't investing much in the Wii U, and haven't spend much money on Zombi U. They managed to shatter my seriously high expectations for this game in a matter of seconds. He pretty much told us we can expect a super short, full priced game with Zombi U.

He admitted that they didn't spend anywhere near the amount of money on it that they would spend on a current gen game on the PS3 and 360 because the Wii U isn't proven yet....Seriously. Talk about dooming your own game before it even releases. So much for buying the Wii U for Zombi U.
Pentagram
@EKGProd

He said it was relatively cheap to develop for, and that 5 of the 7 games they're launching are ports which are incredibly cheap.
Daxelman
EGKProd: He said this.

""Out of seven games[Assassin's Creed, Farcry 3, Rayman Legends and such] we are planning to launch, five games are ports, so those are games for which there is a quite small reinvestment to do..."

That means they don't have to spend as much money on a port. Which is expected, because it's a port.

"For the other five games you are talking about a small budget, I'd say of less than a million euro to make some of the ports, I'd estimate. So together I don't think we have a huge investment on the Wii U."

Financial investment. They don't have to spend as much money on the Wii U because they're mostly making ports of the other games for the thing.
Ruby Doobie
@Daxelman rayman legends isn't a port

I'm really looking forward to the zombi master 2 player mode.
JQM78
Did u guys k.ow zombiu is a sequel to ubisofts first published game "zombi" from like 26 yrs ago?
kevinw729
It is sad that the concept art has been hoisted on the consumer game media to placate the comments from UBISOFT supremo about their underspend on Wii-U titles and that the game was cheap to develop.

After the reaction to those players that saw the recent build, some damage limitation had to be employed to avoid the criticism of the miss-match with the game they will release and the E3 presentation. This could be a serious situation if the players rebel being promised one thing and getting another. And the use of the second screen (tablet) proves to be a fake'y!
