Wii U Darksiders 2 looks at least as good as 360, PS3

Darksiders 2 developer Vigil says the Wii U version looks "at least as good" as the Xbox 360 and PS3 builds.

Developers are under strict non-disclosure agreements to not discuss specifics about Nintendo's console in the lead up to its final unveiling at E3 in the next fortnight.

Despite being standard practice, it has led to speculation that it might be less powerful than the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, but Vigil has put those fears to rest, without compromising their contractual obligations.

"The visuals will be the same," associate producer Jay Fitzloff told Eurogamer. "It's still a work in progress. But I know, at least as good is the way to say it."

Dev kits have changed considerably since the early build of Darksiders 2 for Wii U was made in just 5 weeks, but due to the embargo, we'll have to wait until E3 to see just how much.

Will play through the first during break. Looking forward to it!
One would hope it is at least up to par with the Ps3/360 versions, otherwise that would be a big worry for how powerful the Wii U is. (or how lazy the developers are)

Developers are under stick non-disclosure agreements

Sounds a bit sticky :P
E3 will determine whether I go PC or WiiU with this.
I don't think they upgraded the graphics, maybe just integrated the use of the controller?

HAHAHAHA the guyvers
Its one of those things. Devs won't develop a big game like this to fully utilise any new power available in the Wii U when they'll sell most of their copies on a PS3 or 360.

Only 1st party Nintendo titles will take any advantage in the early years until other next gen consoles are released.
