You will be Batman fighting against the most colourful villains of Gotham City in a new environment, a new plot and added to that, you will be facing new enemies.A brief review of WII U game pad. First of all, WII U, lines up to the speed of XBOX and PS3. It incorporates both a touchscreen and a traditional input methods such as buttons and dual analog sticks. Besides a second controller called the WII U Pro Controller can be used especially for fighting games as it features a more traditional design. Batman: Arkham Origins core mechanics are those used in the previous games Arkham Asylum and Arkham City, therefore the use of the Pro Controller is a good fit for the player ( Batman) to daze enemies, and allows him to "launch into sustain beat down using the attack button."
"The key to success in the combat is to get into a rhythm where Batman flows between his enemies without being hit. Each successful attack adds to the in-fight multiplayer and allows the player to deploy limb and weapon breaking moves. They can also use gadgets, such as the Batarangs and the bat claw." Nick Cowen: The Guardian newspaper
Players of WII U will also avail of the same opportunity as Xbox and PS3 players. The combat is the same and the challenges awaiting them are tough as well. Players have to get ready as they will step out of their "comfort zone" to face villains and rogues on the street of Gotham City, a place where evil is rampant. The combat is tough and new enemies await in the dark. They will attack without pity. The game pad is the tool to use effectively. It can be reinforced by using the WII U Pro controller which came out in 2012.
Batman: Arkham Origins will not be played on XBOX One as many expected although it could have been available on the new console-gen. It may seem inappropriate, but game developers in Montreal has a valuable reason for it. According to game director Michael McIntyre of Warner Bros Montreal, they are a "new team and a new studio", therefore while producing the game, they wanted to be more focus on producing a good quality graphic game as opposed to making it available on a new platform. Therefore a particular attention given in the making of the game. He confirmed also, that the team did not lack the expertise to work on a new console generation but it was more important to keep focus on the quality of game. First thing first. They had their "priorities in order."
