Assassin's Creed engine to power snowboarding game

Ubisoft has unveiled a new snowboarding game at tits Ubidays event - powered by the Assassin's Creed engine.

Shaun White's Snowboarding will use Ubisoft's Anvil engine for the PlayStation 3, PC and Xbox 360, providing an open-world snowboarding game where the mountains are populated by other real players.

The developer also announced a Wii version, not using the AC engine but made entirely from scratch, which will also allow players to use the WiiFit Balance Board to control their character.
