Is Batman: Arkham Origins Multiplayer Skipping Wii U?

The recently-announced multiplayer portion of Batman: Arkham Origins may not be available on the Wii U version of the game, according to a press release.

Confusion is currently reigning after the press release, which was sent out originally claiming "the online mode will be available for the PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system, Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and Windows PC" and thus omitting the Wii U, was reissued without the offending paragraph.

Warner Bros. has yet to respond to our request for comment, so it isn't clear whether the fact Nintendo's console isn't mentioned means the game definitely won't be getting the multiplayer component, or if its fate is still to be decided.

If true, the revelation that the Wii U version of Arkham Origins will be missing a key feature compared to the ones available on other platforms will be a further blow to Nintendo, following this morning's announcement of dire Wii U sales.

As soon as Warner Bros. respond to us clarifying the situation, we'll update the story.
