We Sing Encore

No more teasing: here's the full 40-track song line-up.

Friday 11th June 2010: Nordic Games, the publisher of Europe's favourite Nintendo Wii karaoke game, has just announced the complete line-up of artists and songs which will feature on the UK version of We Sing Encore.

We Sing Encore will boast 40 tracks on disc with 10 songs available exclusively in the UK version, out at the end of July. The 10 exclusive tracks just announced include Girls Aloud, Florence & The Machine, The Saturdays, Kasabian and Baddiel and Skinner & The Lightning Seeds.

"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."

The 10 tracks announced today are:

Girls Aloud - The Promise Florence & The Machine - Rabbit Heart (Raise It Up) The Saturdays - Up Will Young - Leave Right Now Kasabian - Fire S Club 7 - Don't Stop Moving Stereophonics - Dakota The Proclaimers - I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) N Dubz - I Need You Baddiel and Skinner & The Lightning Seeds - Three Lions

We Sing Encore introduces a host of additions to the original We Sing format. 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.
