Shape Up is Ubisoft’s New Fitness Game To Get You In Shape
Ubisoft recently announced a new fitness game called Shape Up that will take advantage of the Kinect accessory.
Shape Up will use the Kinect by projecting the user into the game itself, as opposed to using the cameras to just monitor you.
According to Ubisoft, “Using the Kinect camera, players will have a head to toe image of themselves projected into the game which will aid in keeping of their workouts and calories burned each session”.
“Workouts can be mundane so it was a real challenge to adapt all of these crazy activities into exercises that are truly effective. Shape Up is set to revolutionize fitness games by proving that the more fun you have while working out, the longer you’ll stick with it to achieve better results,” said Charles Huteau, the Creative Director of the game.
Exclusively for Xbox One console, Shape Up is scheduled for a release on November 2014.
