Killer Freaks from Outer Space started life on the 360 and PS3 (and had Rabbids)

3 Comments

Killer Freaks from Outer Space from Ubisoft is one of the known exclusives for the Wii U. Many people have remarked that the enemies within the game are similar to the Rabbids that have starred in many of Ubisoft’s other titles. This is no coincidence as Rabbids were, at some point, within the game but were removed once Ubisoft realised the targeting wasn’t right. Probably because this game is meant to be violent, bloody, and “hardcore”, while Rabbids embody the exact opposite of all of that.

It has also been mentioned the game was originally proposed for the Xbox 360 and PS3. We’re not sure exactly why it made the leap to the Wii U, but an exclusive is always a good thing to have either way.

    i honestly hope this doesnt effect the graphics and this game was fully built up from the beginning for the wiiU otherwise it might result in no full difference in graphics between each generation

    I think they should put the Rabbids back in. That would destroy its creepyness but it would add to the cheeziness the game is seems to be going for.

    This game looks great. I can't wait! So far, this is the only game (that I've seen gameplay for) that I want for the Wii U. I hope Nintendo and third party devs really make the next e3 special. Here's hoping for an F-Zero with 5 players (maybe even 6 if two of those tablet controllers are supported) local play.

    Also, just curious: Is this the only exclusive so far confirmed for the Wii U?
