The game is targeted to dance music lovers and online gamers looking for a fun and exciting multiplayer dancing game where they can tear up the virtual dance floor. Using either a keyboard or supported dance pad, players will be able to dance in an interactive music video right on their PC, all this at no cost at all. By keeping in sync with the beat, players will be able to perfect their dancing skills that range from basic steps to the wildest dance moves. DANCE! Online will also feature the hit music in a variety of styles and genres from the world’s hottest music artists.
“I’m certainly proud to launch the first ever massively multiplayer dancing game in the USA”, says veteran game director David Perry. "A free game with real hit songs to dance to, this has never happened before. We've come up with an entirely new way to work with the music industry, on a game that costs nothing to play. DANCE! Online is going to completely revolutionize the online game space. I'm expecting that this dancing game will create a new culture, changing the way gamers and music artists interact in today’s virtual world."
DANCE! Online is the fourth release from the new Acclaim, a company focused on providing quality multiplayer online games for the PC. And like all of Acclaim’s other games, DANCE! Online will be completely free to download and play. Instead of charging a subscription fee, the game will be supported by in-game advertising and item purchasing which will allow players to customize their characters with the latest gear and accessories. Acclaim has already partnered with IGA Worldwide to provide in-game advertising for its other online game titles.
