Ubisoft has confirmed that the Wii U version of Watch Dogs has been delayed.

The other versions of the game (Xbox One, Xbox 360, PC, PS3, PS4) will launch as planned, sometime in Q2 2014, following Watch Dogs' well documented delay (it was supposed to launch in time with the next-gen consoles late last year).

"We made the difficult decision to further delay the release of Watch Dogs on Wii U to focus the team's resources where they could have the broadest possible benefit for both our customers and Ubisoft," said a spokesperson in a statement sent to Videogamer.

While news of a delay won't be welcome among Wii U owners who were looking forward to getting their hands on the game, at least it hasn't been cancelled, which is what some quarters initially thought.
