Call of Duty: Ghosts announced for Wii U

Activision has announced that Call of Duty: Ghosts will launch on the Wii U alongside other versions.

The Wii U version of Ghosts has always been talked about but never confirmed until now.

It'll also feature GamePad support, although quite what that involves is yet to be revealed.

It's good news for Nintendo, as it's a much needed high-profile game heading to the Wii U following claims from some publishers that the console needs to sell more units for them to make games for it.

Call of Duty: Ghosts is launching 5 November on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC and Wii U. Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions will follow later on.
