Shantae and The Pirate’s Curse is due out in late summer 2014, WayForward announced, and a Wii U version is coming alongside the already-announced 3DS version.
The eShop game, which has been in development for two years, will have the scope of a retail game, WayForward creative director Matt Bozon told Nintendo Life.
“After working on it non-stop for a full two years, we didn’t want to skimp on the size,” Bozon said. “It’s more than twice the size of the previous game!”
