Ubisoft
Announces Development of Monster 4×4: Stunt Racer for Wii

Extreme Terrain Racing Never
Looked So Good

Today, Ubisoft announces the
development of Monster 4×4: Stunt Racer for the Wii. Monster 4×4: Stunt Racer
puts Wii-lovers back into the driver’s seat for a whole new race. Gamers of all
ages will enjoy even bigger wheels, faster trucks and crazier stunts which made
Monster 4X4: World Circuit the second highest selling driving game on the Wii
ever.

Whether you’re grinding through
inner-city construction sites, crunching out-of-town canyons, or scraping
through exclusive wall-driving features, players will be able to perform
vertical stunts and find shortcuts as they take on their friends and family in
4-player split-screen modes.

"Monster 4×4: Stunt Racer is a game
the fans of Monster Truck World Circuit have been restlessly waiting for,” said
Tony Key, director of marketing at Ubisoft. "Players will get to experience more
excitement, upgraded features and the exhilarating action of steering the
world’s most powerful trucks while tearing through new extreme off-road racing
circuits.”

Monster 4X4 Stunt Racer key
features:

• NEW STUNTS: Players can use nitro
  to pull off crazy stunts like barrel rolls and back flips. Drive up vertical
  walls to reach shortcuts, avoid difficult terrain and cross the finish line
  right before your friends.

• NEW TRACKS: Monster 4×4: Stunt
  Racer takes players through 7 new tracks ranging from inner-city construction
  sites to out-of-town canyons. Each track will provide a new driving
  experience. The various terrains will have different effects on the truck.
  Avoid mud pools and patches of ice or risk losing control.

• ALTERNATE ROUTES: Players can
  navigate their way through levels by choosing between different routes that
  vary in difficulty. Decide between scoring points to gain nitro and taking the
  racing line to make up time. This includes 50 different challenges across 10
  ranks and over 30 side missions.

• PLAY WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY: Have
  fun playing with friends and family with up to 4 players on split-screen in a
  variety of multiplayer games including Racing, Freestyle Show-Off and Last Man
  Standing.

• INTUITIVE CONTROLS: Easy,
  wheel-friendly handling gives full and intuitive control over your truck as
  you push it to the limit.

• NEW UPGRADABLE VEHICLES: Whether
  it’s a European Super Car or a powerful American SUV, Monster 4×4: Stunt Racer
  has a vehicle to match individual driving styles. Every vehicle part (spoiler,
  tires, engine…) can be upgraded, giving an extra edge during the race. This
  includes 6 fully upgradable vehicles and 5 un-lockable supercars.

Monster 4×4: Stunt Racer is
scheduled for release in Fall 2009.
