We Sing Encore will include 40 great new songs the majority of which feature their original videos. The songs span pop, rock, rap and R&B, and bring together party classics such as Love Shack (B52s), contemporary hits like Fight For This Love (Cheryl Cole), crowd-pleasers like Don’t Stop Movin’ (S Club 7), hip-hop hits like Shut Up (Black Eyed Peas) and housewives’ favourite I’m Too Sexy (Right Said Fred).

The game introduces a host of additions. A single-player reward system will offer soloists a stimulating challenge, whilst groups can opt for competitive or co-operative achievements designed to reward the very best performances. The addition of a ‘real karaoke’ mode offers the greatest challenge, removing backing vocals entirely. Other gameplay enhancements include the introduction of ‘Star Notes’ and a new jukebox mode allowing non-stop music. Technically, the entire engine has been overhauled, boasting HDTV support, specific anti-lag features and an impressive visual makeover.

Can’t sing? Don’t worry: the new singing lessons area will teach players how to sing like professionals. And those who fancy messing around will enjoy playing back their own performances and adding voice effects in real-time.

With We Sing Encore the music policy is still something for everyone, but with the extra 10 songs available the choice and value offered by Encore is second to none. The English, Swedish and German versions will each boast 10 tracks picked for the specific territory, offering local hits on top of global smashes. Nordic Games continues to work with all the major music publishers including; Sony, Emi, Universal, Warner and a host of Independents, which means the We Sing Encore tracklist has the best choice possible.

We Sing and We Sing Encore remain the only karaoke games on any format which allow four players to sing together. The launch of We Sing Encore will be supported by a high-profile TV campaign, mammoth advertising campaign, celebrity-packed launch event, and a host of new community features through the revamped We Sing website. In addition, We Sing Encore will sponsor VIP areas at the summer’s hottest festivals.

"Three Lions is, without a shadow of a doubt, the greatest football song ever written," says Nik Blower, sales and marketing director, Nordic Games, "so to secure it as part of our UK exclusive tracklist is a real coup. For We Sing Encore, we've broadened the selection of tracks to make it even more inclusive, on top of a polished game engine which offers a host of new features. Combine this with the fact we remain the only karaoke game to allow four players to sing at the same time, and you can see why We Sing will remain the most popular game of its type in Europe."
