Jenny McCarthy bringing fitness to Wii in 'Your Shape'

Jenny McCarthy is coming to your Wii! Ubisoft has announced that the comedienne and funny-lady will be the in-game host for the next wave of video game fitness, Your Shape. The game is set to go after the fitness market that exploded with the launch of Wii Fit. However, instead of using the Wii Remote or Nunchuk, the game will be the first controller free fitness title for the Wii.

Your Shape will come bundled with a camera that will use Ubisoft's motion tracking technology to give you an authentic self-personal training experience. The camera will scan you, show yourself on screen and detail your current fitness level.

"I am thrilled to be working with Ubisoft on Your Shape," said Jenny McCarthy. "The features in the game are incredible, and you have to see the technology to believe it. I was blown away. I truly believe in the importance of fitness, and Your Shape featuring Jenny McCarthy is the perfect way to get a truly interactive, personalized workout on Wii. Given how busy we all are these days, especially once you have kids, it is important to find the most effective way to keep fit from the comfort of home."

The game will release this holiday season.
