Namco Bandai has announced We Ski for Nintendo Wii has gone gold and is now locked into a May 13 date to hit the virtual slopes.

We Ski will support up to 4 players and feature slopes ranging in difficulty from bunny to black diamond. Players can ski at night or try out numerous modes like races, slaloms, moguls, freestyle challenges, ski school, and more.

We Ski will be the first game in stores that supports optional control from the upcoming Wii Balance Board. You'll have to wait six days to try it out, though, as the Balance Board isn't due in stores until May 19.

"NAMCO BANDAI has worked to create the most intuitive and responsive skiing game available, giving players a fully immersive experience," said Todd Thorson, Director of Marketing and Public Relations for NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc. "We want players to feel the fun and intensity of real downhill skiing from the comfort of their living rooms."

We Ski will carry an enticing price of only $29.99.
