Ubisoft has announced that it will release Shaun White Snowboarding: World Stage as a Wii exclusive this Christmas.

The sequel to last year's extreme sports hit will see players following the Olympic gold medallist around the world's top snowboarding competitions in France, Canada and Japan, as well as hitting a half-pipe in the middle of New York's Times Square.

World Stage will be compatible with the Balance Board, as was the Wii version of last year's game, Shaun White Snowboarding: Road Trip. Balance Board was one of the things which distinguished the decent Road Trip from its ropey sister game on PC, 360 and PS3 - and may be why Ubisoft's decided to go the single-format route this time.

Shaun White Snowboarding: World Stage is being developed by Ubisoft Montreal and will be on show at E3 next week, taking its bow at Ubisoft's press conference on the Monday evening. Stay tuned for more.
