Last year, High Voltage was the Wii’s biggest fan, professing its adoration for the little white waggle box at every turn.

Now, though, High Voltage has decided it’s simply not ready to settle down with one console just yet, and will play the field with its newly multiplatform-ized shooter The Grinder.

High Voltage has stated via a Radio-Blodec podcast that it plans on a least one sequel to The Conduit.

“It all depends on the fans and sales but it’s a little early for now to assume anything,” said producer Joshua Olsen. “Anyway, we are very interested to make a sequel to The Conduit, it’s quite a robust world and there are more stories we want to tell.

“The Conduit is the first part for our hero and we want to make more parts to tell more things about him.”

While it sounds like a sequel is definite, Olsen was quick to point out that High Voltage has not started on one yet.

Thanks, GoNintendo.

IGN’s given The Conduit 8.6/10, which is likely to come as relief to the Wii “hardcore”. Snip:

It’s not revolutionary, but the Conduit is a great first-person shooter designed just for Wii owners. While the game does not turn the genre upside-down, it is innovative in certain areas — for example, it features the most customizable, precise and enjoyable controls of any console shooter created, hands down.

The campaign’s five-to-eight hours long, apparently. Sounds like it could be a lot worse. Hit the link for the full thing.

The Conduit, originally planned for a UK release on June 26, will instead arrive in stores July 10.

Sega UK says it’s a localization issue on the European version, and there have been no changes to the North American date for next week.

The High Voltage Software-developed FPS is a Wii exclusive.

Looks cool, to be fair, what with its guns and bullets and stuff.

Take a look. More detail here.

After the break. This is the first footage of High Voltage’s newly announced gladiator fighting game, and it looks fairly bloody.

And when we say “fairly,” we mean “stupidly”.

Out early next year for Wii. Thanks, Kotaku.

The news comes after the firm yesterday showed grisly Wii fighter Gladiator A.D. for the first time.
