The latest instalment in Ubisoft’s Your Shape franchise will be released for Kinect in November.
Your Shape: Fitness Evolved 2012 follows on from the best-selling Kinect launch title from last year, which Ubisoft proudly claims is the No.1 fitness game available for Microsoft’s motion controller.
For the 2012 edition, the publisher is promising a revamped game structure that is more user-friendly, with more than 90 hours of activities to work out to. Exercises range from dance classes, zen serrsions, martial arts and more.
The new Run the World feature allows gamers to run through 3D renditions of iconic cities such as New York, Paris and London. There will also be offline multiplayer modes, the return of Your Shape Center and advanced stat tracking.
Ubisoft reports that over 500,000 users have played last year’s Your Shape online, and have racked up 29 million minutes of exercise and 11 million routines between them. Over 300 million calories have been burned worldwide.
