Atari today announced the forthcoming European release of NAMCO BANDAI Games' Family Trainer exclusively for Wii; scheduled for release in September 2008.

The game includes the specially designed Family Trainer mat controller which, when combined with the Wii Remote, lets players get completely physical.

There are over a dozen single and multiplayer challenges to choose from all based on outdoor challenges such as river rafting, mine karting, log jumping, rope skipping and more. The activities take place in a variety of locations including jungle forests full of ancient ruins, a haunted mansion complete with zombies, and a fairytale world where riding on toys and floating amongst the clouds is the norm.

Players can also track their progress and set new records for their friends and family to beat.
