While Europe is still waiting with impatience for the release of Scribblenauts Unlimited, there’s been a new announcement about the game series that’s sure to please fans of the game as well as comic book junkies. Get your imaginations revved and brush up on your DC Universe history, because Scribblenauts Unmasked: A DC Comics Adventure is coming to the Wii U and 3DS this fall.
In a chat with Polygon , Caleb Arseneaux—senior producer for Scribblenauts Unmasked—described how he and the team did plenty of research in order to include every possible variation of characters from the DC Universe, as well as multiple varied environments. What does that mean? Think 33 different Batmans, or even more mind-boggling, 130 different Green Lanterns!
Here’s what he had to say about how it works:
“Initially we had 1,200 characters, and then we just kept finding more and more characters and more variations, and eventually we wound up with more than 2,000,
…So when you play Scribblenauts for the first time and you spawn a cat, that’s usually when people are like, ‘Oh my god, this game has a cat! That’s awesome!’ Then you type in dog, and the dog appears and starts chasing the cat,” he said. “In Unmasked, we have a Red Lantern that is a cat — Dex-Starr — so if you spawn a dog, and then you spawn a cat, Dex-Starr will appear, and when the dog tries to chase him, he’ll beat up the dog.”
Currently, the Wii U is the only home console scheduled to receive the game, so right now it appears to be a Nintendo exclusive. Sounds good to us!
