Unity Games, the game publishing division of Unity Technologies Japan, has announced the release of the popular Wind-up Knight 2 for the Wii U system. Originally developed by Robot Invader for Android and iOS, Wind-up Knight 2 has since become one of the most popular mobile platform games. The devs say that the game has been extensively updated and rebalanced for the console experience and is available now on Wii U in the Nintendo eShop for $7.50.
“We’re tremendously excited to help bring such a great example of what the Unity engine allows developers to creatively accomplish to an entirely new platform,” said Yukimi Shimura, Strategic Contents Manager and Producer of Unity Games. “Robot Invader’s ability to focus on Wind-up Knight 2’s clever platforming, fantastic character design and beautiful visuals is a testament to Unity making platform dynamics so extensible.”
Wind-up Knight 2 is a clever and highly challenging platform game where players control Sir Sprint, a clockwork knight tasked with completing a host of increasingly diabolical challenges. Armed with a powerful sword and a stout shield the windup knight must double-jump, duck & roll, attack and block his way to victory in a beautifully rendered world filled with humorous hazards and inventive obstacles.
Players collect coins, discover secrets, use special abilities, purchase powerful new equipment all in an effort to achieve better rankings and conquer level-specific goals. With more than 40 levels, the new Tournament mode, multitudes of secrets and power-ups, unique stage challenges and much more, Wind-up Knight 2 offers a lots of whimsical fun and soul-crushing excitement.
Wind-up Knight 2 is now available in North America on Wii U in the Nintendo eShop for $7.50. To learn more, visit the official website at windupknight2.com
