Ubisoft announced that it is collaborating again with Olympic Gold Medalist Shaun White in Shaun White Snowboarding 2: World Stage. Developed by Ubisoft Montréal, the game will be available exclusively for the Nintendo Wii and will be on store shelves holiday 2009.
Players will hit the slopes with Shaun White and his crew, but this time the stakes are higher as you pursue the world’s top competitions from a half-pipe in the middle of New York’s Time Square to the most prestigious competitions of France, Canada and Japan.
Here’s what action sports phenom Shaun White had to say about the game. To quote: “Ubisoft has been a great partner, and I’m excited for World Stage. It’s cool to give people insight on what my life is like on the competition circuit.”
Shaun White Snowboarding was a worldwide success for Ubisoft, selling over 3 million copies since its November 2008 launch and establishing a new sports brand for Ubisoft. The title was also one of the first and most popular video games compatible with the Wii Balance Board accessory. Players will be able to break out their Balance Boards once again for Shaun White Snowboarding: World Stage when they flex their board skills either alone or together with family and friends.
