The game’s inability to turn a profit – or even come close to doing so – is the reason we won’t be seeing a sequel, as Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot confirmed in a recent chat with GI.biz.

There’s been nothing like it for the Wii U since and, unfortunately, it seems we won’t be seeing any more ZombiU in the future. The survival-horror adventure won favor from those that played it thanks to its back-to-roots take on the genre and its innovative use of Nintendo’s new hardware. This isn’t an uncommon tale in the world of video games, but it’s especially pertinent here because of this particular Ubisoft game’s position as one of the most well-regarded Wii U launch titles. ZombiU was a critical success and a commercial failure.
