Stealth Inc 2 Announced, Exclusive to Wii U

Curve Studios have this morning announced Stealth Inc 2, the follow-up to their hugely successful stealth title that appeared across PC, PlayStation devices and smart phones. The sequel will be exclusive to the Wii U, making use of the gamepad for mulitplayer. Not only that, this time around you won’t be limited to testing areas – PTi Industries is going open world.

You’ll need to explore the entire facility, using tools to help free other human clones. If nothing else, this will make the game much bigger than the original Stealth Inc, and will likely add a whole new type of logic puzzle to its previously stealthy selection. You can probably also expect a new set of traps to have to bypass, as well as classics from the first game, and a story.

From the press release:

Stealth Inc creator and Game Director on the project, Jonathan Biddle, said: “We’ve relished revisiting the world of Stealth Inc. It’s given us the chance to really fine tune the Stealth Inc experience, while also hugely expanding it with the addition of a larger explorable game world, and a more involved narrative.”

No word, of course, on if this is a timed exclusive or if it’ll ever make its way across to other platforms, but the obvious position to take would be ‘probably.’ Either way, it’s a nice acquisition for the Wii U, an interesting indie that’ll be sure to fill the gaps between AAA Nintendo releases.
