<p><em>Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night</em> could come to the Wii U if the game&#8217;s crowdfunding project raises $3 million. At the time of writing, the <em>Bloodstained</em>&#8216;s Kickstarter page has raised over $2.8 million, making this a very realistic goal.</p>
<p>The port will be handled by Armature Studio, a team of developers who used to work for Nintendo at Retro Studios. In a statement made on Kickstarter, Armature said: &#8220;When we were approached with the opportunity to assist with <em>Bloodstained</em> on Wii U, we were ecstatic. This style of game is one we are intimately familiar with from our Metroid Prime days, and it&#8217;s exciting to once again put our familiarity with Nintendo hardware to good use.&#8221;</p>

<p><em>Bloodstained</em> is a 2D platformer with RPG mechanics and a focus on exploration. The project is being led by Koji Igarashi, who produced the modern 2D <em>Castlevania</em> games.</p>
<p>If fully-funded, <em>Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night</em> will launch on March, 2017 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Wii U and PC. The Kickstarter campaign ends on June 12.</p>
