Dance Dance Revolution Ultramix 3 Xbox Q&A

Dance Dance Revolution ULTRAMIX 3 pushes the boundaries of the Xbox Live®
online gaming service to deliver the ultimate online dance experience. The Xbox
Live service allows players to go head-to-head against other DDR fans from
around the globe, talk live to other DDR players during gameplay, send messages
or chat with other players,  as well as download new songs and upload dance
routines. DDR ULTRAMIX 3 also features never-before-seen offline modes that
cater to the casual, beginner and advanced dancers. The “Freestyle Mode” lets
newcomers and experts dance to any song without having to follow specific dance
steps on the screen. Players of all skill levels will enjoy the new “Quest
Mode,” where dancers travel from city to city and build a world-championship
dance team by completing different challenge objectives.

 

By serving up the hottest dance tunes – comprised of remixes, dance anthems and
popular hits – DDR ULTRAMIX 3 will keep everyone moving and grooving to a huge
selection of music. Featuring more than 70 songs across multiple genres and
styles, DDR ULTRAMIX 3 will get gamers onto the dance floor with the largest
music variety of any DDR title released in North America to date. This includes
songs from such artists as Black Eyed Peas, Blackalicious, NOFX, and Moby, plus
smash-hits like “Crazy In Love” and “Play That Funky Music.” The game will also
feature real music videos from select artists during gameplay, and voiceover
commentary from Radio Active, a MC and beatboxer for the band Spearhead.

 

For the first time in the history of the series, users will be able to download
a free song via Xbox Live, during the month of November, and add it to their
track list on DDR ULTRAMIX 3. Additionally, the game supports the songs that
were available on Xbox Live of previous ULTRAMIX games. Players can download,
via Xbox Live, 30 songs from DDR ULTRAMIX and 30 songs from DDR ULTRAMIX 2 at a
fee of $5.00 for a pack of 5 songs each. Other song packs, featuring new songs
not found on past ULTRAMIX soundtracks will also be available for download,
exclusively for DDR ULTRAMIX 3, starting in November. Expect new song packs to
be added on a monthly basis.
