Shaun White Snowboarding is a sports game signed with the name of a well-known snowboarder prepared by the development team of Ubisoft Montreal studio. Players have the opportunity to test their skiing skills on a board in the Alaskan and Japanese mountains, as well as on the slopes of Park City. The creators put a lot of emphasis on realistic game experiences, especially the physics of snowboarding.

Shaun White Snowboarding is a response to a highly popular SSX and Amped game series focusing on snowboarding. In contrast to those titles, the Ubisoft Entertainment production stresses realism of this popular winter sport.

Shaun White Snowboarding gives you full freedom in traversing mountain slopes. You can go wherever you want and try any rout you like. Most importantly, you are not alone while playing. At all times the game tries to establish Internet connection, and as a result, most of the snowboarders you see are not just AI-controlled characters, but real players. Their number on the screen varies from 16 to 32. This also enhances multiplayer gameplay, as you do not have to search for a special server. You just need to enable multiplayer mode.

The game’s main advantage is realistic physics simulation. Therefore, your score depends not only on your skill but also proper choice of equipment and preparation. Initially, all characters have only basic gear, but as you progress you unlock better outfits, gadgets, and snowboards.

Shaun White Snowboarding features three locations in various places of the Earth: Alaska, Park City and Japan. Dynamism of gameplay is enhanced by different camera settings – even FPP.
