There are few things more exciting than hearing about a new game that's free, even if that game is Treasures of Montezuma Blitz, a free-to-play puzzle game coming to Vita in North America soon.
Ubisoft's always a big day-one supporter of any console — it launched six games with 3DS a year ago — and it's one of the few publishers to have announced multiple Wii U projects in the forms of Assassin's Creed III, Killer Freaks from Outer Space and Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Online.
