SAN FRANCISCO — November 18, 2008 — Today Ubisoft announced that it will publish My Fitness Coach™ exclusively for the Wii™ home video game system from Nintendo. Based on the original idea from ResponDesign’s Yourself! Fitness and Fitness! Lifestyle, My Fitness Coach will allow players to create, engage in and track their own fitness program. A virtual trainer, Maya, will guide players through more than 400 unique exercises, give valuable fitness advice and even provide a pep talk for extra motivation.
My Fitness Coach begins by evaluating the player’s fitness level and goal, whether it is weight loss, core body strength or even increased flexibility. Players can then choose their workout environment and music. My Fitness Coach also features a Meditation Garden where players can be guided through stretching and yoga techniques.
The My Coach brand, part of Ubisoft’s Games for Everyone division, consists of a series of games that encourages players to improve themselves while being entertained at the same time. Other titles in the brand include: My Weight Loss Coach for a healthier lifestyle, My Stop Smoking Coach with Allen Carr to help quit the habit, My Chinese Coach and My Japanese Coach for foreign language development.
My Fitness Coach will be available in stores on December 2, 2008 for Wii with an MSRP of $29.99.
