Konami today announced that it is bringing a new edition of its popular Dance Dance Revolution franchise to Nintendo’s new-generation console, Wii. The game is called Dance Dance Revolution: Hottest Party and uses the Wii-mote, making it totally unique amongst the many DDR games in the last ten years.

Like traditional DDR games, Hottest Party requires that players coordinate with on-screen arrows, tapping each arrow on their dance pad with their feet. In addition to this traditional theme, Konami’s debut Wii DDR title also employs use of the Wii-mote, requiring gamers to wave the controller at precise moments.

The game will also ship with a number of new modes, including Friendly Synch multiplayer mode, where two players are challenged to dance and wave the Wii-mote in perfect unison. There is also Battle Mode, in which gamers will not only compete with each other but also use the Wii remote to obstruct each other. Cooperative play is also included, along with returning modes Free Play and Workout Mode.

Hottest Party features a soundtrack sporting top-charting hits from a variety of genres over the last four decades.
