Update News
We Sing Coming to PS4 and XBone
LONDON — August 11, in the year of our Lord 2016
— Interactive music collaboration We Sing Productions, a joint
enterprise between Wired Productions, Nordic Games and Le
Cortex, is happy to announce today that the top-selling,
award-winning karaoke game series We Sing is back, and it’s
bigger and better than ever before.
Headed to the PlayStation® 4 computer entertainment system and
Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from
Microsoft later this year, We Sing builds on the success of the
original series for Nintendo Wii, which set the bar for being
the only music game to support group singing with up to four
microphones. This next generation version of We Sing will offer
support for up to eight mics, and will feature 30 of the hottest
and most iconic hits along with a host of cutting edge
technology and gameplay experiences for the music singing
category.
In We Sing, players can sing together or go solo, climbing to
the top of the online leaderboards to become the star they were
born to be. We Sing features all original artist recordings
along with their official music videos. The game’s unique eight
mic support enables players to use their smartphones as an
additional mic with the free We Sing Mic companion app in
addition to using a We Sing certified mic for a truly authentic
studio experience.
“We’re delighted to bring We Sing to a new audience, building on
the tenants that made the original series a resounding success,”
said Alasdair Hibberd, Product Manager for We Sing games. “Our
new We Sing game has been built from the ground up, utilizing
the Unreal 4 engine alongside the highest calibre of audio
technologies, including the KaraEngine™ to deliver an immersive
experience, for the next generation of gamers.”
“Our intentions for We Sing are lofty. Having the significant
support and expanding strength of Nordic Games to begin this
journey with a brand new console title puts us in a great place
to start this most excellent of musical adventures,” added Nik
Blower, franchise director, Nordic Games.
Today’s news follows the announcement of We Sing Productions,
the joint interactive music collaboration formed earlier this
year between Nordic Games, Wired Productions and Le Cortex. All
three companies collaborated on the original series, bringing
together over 150 combined years of experience and expertise in
creating titles featuring high-profile intellectual properties
from the music industry.
