Darksiders II will look as good, if not better, on Wii U than its counterparts on Xbox 360 and Playstation 3.
The Darksiders II developer states that based on the developer kit that they’ve received, the Wii U hardware will be plenty powerful enough, but they clarified that nothing is final as of yet.
Darksiders II director Marvin Donald said that the Wii U version of the game would very likely be a direct port from the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 versions, unless the Wii U hardware ended up being extraordinarily powerful.
Of the plans, Donald said “It’s probably going to be the same graphically, regardless of any minor or major horsepower improvements on the Wii U. But, in all honesty, if the Wii U turns out to be this ridiculously powerful machine, we will probably make changes to our budget and scope to take advantage of that. But that’s currently not the plan. It’s going to be a direct port. That’s what we’re planning on. But that’s based off of what we believe the hardware’s going to be like.”
