A developer working at Ubisoft’s Montpellier studio says that a sequel to ZombiU is at the moment in the prototype stage and that it might take time before official information is offered to the fan community.

Jean-Philippe Caro, a creative director at the company, writes via Twitter, “@KingreX32 thank you for your interest in zombiu. The team is working hard on a prototype. it´s too soon to tell you more.”

It’s unclear whether the existence of a prototype for ZombiU 2 means that the game will be actually created or whether Ubisoft is still evaluating its viability.

The first title was launched on the new Wii U home console from Ubisoft and was one of the first games to use the unique capabilities of the device and its GamePad controller.

ZombiU has also been a moderate financial success for Ubisoft.
