E3: Ubisoft announces Wii-exclusive Nitrobike
It doesn’t look like Ubisoft is planning to stop with just Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 for the Wii. The publisher has just sent out word via E3 and press release of another new game currently under development as a Wii exclusive, titled Nitrobike.
The game’s reportedly going to have players riding rocket-propelled bikes using arcade-style controls, somewhat like Excite Truck. It will also carry support for both standard multiplayer and online mode.
What makes this game announcement all the more interesting is that Nitrobike is being developed by Left Field Productions – the same studio that brought Excitebike 64 to the Nintendo 64 console. As Ubisoft’s publishing VP Jay Cohen remarked, “Ubisoft is thrilled to be introducing the first Motocross game available for Wii. NitrobikeÂ’s fun and fast-paced gameplay is sure to be a hit for Wii owners for the holiday season.”
Expect this new motocross title to hit store this holiday season. That’s all the info we’ve got available for now – stick around in case we pick up more Nitrobike goodies in the near future.
