Crysis 3 not in Development for Wii U

Crysis 3 is currently not being developed for the Wii U, according to Crytek general manager Nick Button-Brown.

The announcement was made on Button-Brown's official Twitter, where he said, "Just to answer the speculation, we are not currently working on a wiiU version of #Crysis3."

Rumours about the potential for the game to come to Nintendo's console started when Crytek CEO Cevat Yerli said Wii U is "minimum on par with the current generation." He also shared the news that the CryEngine 3 ran "beautifully" on the platform, and that while the main Crytek team wasn't working on a project, there is "a game in development from a respected developer that [the company] will be announcing."

We still don't know what that title is, but just because the main Crytek team isn't working on anything doesn't mean a smaller division like Crytek UK couldn't be developing a game.

Crysis 3 is due out on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC and is currently targeted for a February 2013 release.
