New EA Active Coming This Fall

By: Tiffany Nevin

Tweet

Electronic Arts announced yesterday that EA Sports Active 2.0 (working title, probably) will be available this fall for Wii, PS3, and iPod Touch/iPhone. A new motion detection system and heart rate monitor will make this the most advanced workout title yet.

The new wireless motion detector will include arm and leg straps (much like the Wii’s current setup – not sure at the moment whether you’ll be forced to buy new peripherals for the Wii version) and also a wireless heart monitor. (Those are in the picture over there.) Your heart rate will constantly be monitored on-screen and be tracked over time.

All that tracking is put to use on the EA Active online hub, where you’ll be able to share your data as well as form workout groups and send messages back and forth. I sense another GamingAngels 90 Day Challenge on the way shortly after this drops.
