Ubisoft has announced that Protothea will be available in May for WiiWare in North America. Protothea, is a 3D top-down vertical scrolling shooter game putting players in complete control via the Wii Remote and Nunchuk.

"Ubisoft is excited to bring Protothea exclusively to the platform and we feel it's a must-have WiiWare title,” shared James Regan, vice president of third party operations, Ubisoft. "Protothea really reminds me of some of the best arcade games, with the Wii Remote as an added dimension. It's just a flurry of fast-paced action that anyone can simply pick up and enjoy.”

The storyline immerses players into an adventure where they will need to destroy an asteroid called "Maqno 01” and sabotage the plans of a political faction called "The Core.” Players will quickly jump right in and guide their ship through multiple missions on futuristic planets where enemy AI is dynamic and will change based on the player's actions.
