New Just Dance 2016 feature and tracks unveiled at Gamescom
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Just Dance 2016 is seeing a double dose of reveals at Gamescom 2015.
First, Ubisoft announced a new lip-syncing-focused mode known as “Showtime”. Here’s how it works:
The new Showtime mode will allow players to unleash their inner star by creating unique music videos of themselves performing. Players lip-sync and perform along to hit songs in the game and the video footage is then turned into a fun shareable music video. The music videos pull in both creative visual elements and pop cultural references— each song will have a distinctive and visually original atmosphere. A Wii U Gamepad is required to play this mode.
We also have several new tracks that are now confirmed for the game:
• “Fancy” by Iggy Azalea Ft. Charli XCX
• “Fun” by Pitbull Ft. Chris Brown
• “Lights” by Ellie Goulding
• “I’m An Albatraoz” by AronChupa
• “Circus” by Britney Spears
• “Balkan Blast Remix” from Angry Birds
• “Stuck On A Feeling” by Prince Royce
• “Boys (Summertime Love)” by The Lemon Cubes
• “Rabiosa” by Shakira Ft. El Cata
Just Dance 2016 will be released on October 20 in North America and October 23 in Europe.

We found out yesterday that a Gravity Falls game is in development for 3DS. Today, it has been officially revealed.
Gravity Falls: Legend of the Gnome Gemulets will be on Nintendo’s handheld this fall. Ubisoft is publishing the title, which is being created in the UbiArt engine.
As stated in today’s announcement, Gravity Falls: Legend of the Gnome Gemulets is being created in partnership with Disney Interactive and the show’s creator Alex Hirsch (who also created the original key art). It features “Gravity Falls’ trademark quirky humor in an authentic and interactive way, letting fans play as Dipper and Mabel as they set out to solve mysteries and restore order to Gnome kingdom.” Players will be able to “encounter many more characters from the show and will explore locations including the town of Gravity Falls, the Mystery Shack and more.”
Here’s an official overview:
In Gravity Falls: Legend of the Gnome Gemulets, a crisis has engulfed the Gnome kingdom – and only Dipper and Mabel can save the day. The Pines twins must work together to collect tools and weapons around Gravity Falls as they attempt to solve mysteries and prepare for encounters with paranormal and super creatures. On their perilous journey, they will battle fearsome enemies that block their path and will ultimately restore order to the kingdom.
