Celebrate Kinect’s First Anniversary With Discounted Dance Central DLC

Now through Saturday, Nov. 5, Dance Central celebrates the launch of Dance Central 2 and Kinect for Xbox 360’s first anniversary with deep discounts on its entire downloadable catalog. All songs in the Dance Central library not included on the original game disc will be discounted, including a wide range of artists including Missy Elliott, Rihanna, Black Eyed Peas, Trey Songz, Gwen Stefani, Janet Jackson and Sean Paul.

Various packages are available starting at just 480 Microsoft Points and contain between three and 15 tracks available for download on Xbox LIVE Marketplace. There are seven total song packs as part of the sale, plus two “marathon” bundles that include fourteen and fifteen songs, respectively.

These songs are the perfect warm up for the Tuesday, Oct. 25, launch of Dance Central 2 with the full catalog of downloadable content fully compatible with Dance Central 2! Additionally, Dance Central 2 lets you take advantage of the sequel’s new features with your original Dance Central songs, including simultaneous multiplayer, revamped Break It Down, voice commands, and more!

Harmonix’s original Dance Central was one of the top selling games for Kinect and set the bar as the first dance video game to harness the power of Kinect, tracking full-body dance moves and teaching professionally-choreographed routines to all players regardless of skill level. Dance Central 2 raises that bar with simultaneous multiplayer allowing two players to play at the same time, revamped Dance Battle and a new Free-4-All scoring mechanic, voice commands, a redesigned Break It Down mode and an unbeatable soundtrack featuring artists like Usher, Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj, Bruno Mars, Daft Punk, Montell Jordan, and more.
