We investigate a two players zero sum differential game with incomplete information on the initial state: The first player has a private information on the initial state while the second player knows only a probability distribution on the initial state. This could be view as a generalization to differential games of the famous Aumann-Maschler framework for repeated games. In an article of the first author, the existence of the value in random strategies was obtained for a finite number of initial conditions (the probability distribution is a finite combination of Dirac measures). The main novelty of the present work consists in : first extending the result on the existence of a value in random strategies for infinite number of initial conditions and second - and mainly - proving the existence of a value in pure strategies when the initial probability distribution is regular enough (without atoms).
Keywords: Wasserstein distance., zero-sum games, incomplete information, Differential games, purification.
