Lunar and Grandia developer GameArts will be making its WiiWare debut later this month. The all original Shadow Walker was previously announced for October release. Today, the company shared a final release date of October 27. Pricing remains unchanged at 1,000 WiiPoints.

In Shadow Walker, you take control of a blue, flying fairy known as "Popo." Your goal is to guide a yellow-haired boy called Rukusu to a goal.

Rukusu is a forest spirit, and is unable to walk in the light. To guide him, you'll have to make use of Popo's ability to create shadows by casting magic at special Maho Maho Columns that line the levels.
