Dance Central 3 Release Date Announced[UPDATE]

11 tracks confirmed as well, and introducing Boomie the Boombox!

Written by Matrarch on 23 July 12 at 14:45 , updated on 23 July 12 at 14:45

Update:

Since the publication of this article, Harmonix released another key component to the Dance Central 3 storyline that invloves Boomie, the time travelling boombox, and DCI, The Dance Central Crime Investigations Unit. Word on the street is that this new storyline is as good as putting maple syrup on a hot dog. Let's check out the new information:



Original Story:

Today, Harmonix revealed two key bits of information regarding their upcoming, Kinect-enabled title, Dance Central 3.

First, they've revealed 11 new tracks that will be part of the setlist. While some are of the typical Dance Central variety, a couple will get you wondering how the series went through two installments and multiple DLC packs and managed not to include those tracks already.

2NE1 – “I Am The Best (Original Version)”
Alice Deejay – “Better Off Alone”
Backstreet Boys – “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back)”
J.J. Fad – “Supersonic”
Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz ft. Ying Yang Twins – “Get Low”
LMFAO – “Sexy And I Know It”
Los Del Rio – “Macarena (Bayside Boys Mix)”
Maroon 5 ft. Christina Aguilera – “Moves Like Jagger”
Vanilla Ice – “Ice Ice Baby”
Vicki Sue Robinson – “Turn The Beat Around”
Village People – “Y.M.C.A.”
Second, and perhaps more important, you can now circle the following dates on your calendars for when you can pick up your copy of Dance Central 3. In North America, it will release on October 16th. The game will arrive a few short days later on October 19th in Europe, Asia, and Australia.

I may have to get Kinect back. It seems like a lot of my favourite games are getting new titles or added Kinect support!

Very excited about this game. I'm just wondering (about the achievement) how it'll work on 8 players mode, considering room and people.

But why bother trying make a story and quests ? Nobody will care about it and it will suck anyway. Just stick to what matters and make it good.

Why do you always have to fight crime or people with bullets or fists. It's much better to settle disputes on the dance floor. That being said, I'm not sure if I get this traveling in time thing like the youtube clip above talks about. If the did it right it could be really cool, a GTA like type game walking around posing or doing a 1 second dance move in the street that would trigger things.

I'm not saying I have all the answers to how a game like that would be good, but you could break the dance up into many small parts. Maybe mix in a little Kinect Mirrors edge type thing into it.

Is it weird that I got super excited just recognizing people from HMX that I've met in the video? I love the sense of humor they've got and I'm looking forward to DC3.
