GAMING: DJ Hero 2 Announced

DJ Hero 2 is the much anticipated return of one of the most successful games of 2009, and when the party starts on October 22, budding beat chemists, singing sensations and all of their friends will experience another 100 of the biggest tracks from the hottest artists, remixed exclusively for DJ Hero® 2, including Eminem’s “Not Afraid,” Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance,” David Guetta’s “Memories” feat. Kid Cudi, Lil’ Wayne’s “Lollipop” feat. Static Major, and Dizzee Rascal & Armand Van Helden’s “Bonkers.”

Cranking up the soundtrack to “the most innovative and immersive music experience of 2009”, the full list of 105 speaker-blaring tracks and club-shaking anthems that will be transformed into over 80 unique mixes for DJ Hero 2 reads like a who’s who of music industry giants.

The ultimate mixer of music and friends, DJ Hero 2 will deliver the definitive way for players to come together and party with a host of new multiplayer modes – including DJ Battles that pit DJ against DJ in mixes produced specifically for battle gameplay – and invite vocalists into the spotlight with integrated on-screen singing and rapping of lyrics and rhymes while bringing the party to life with jump-in/jump-out Party Play gameplay.

The game will also feature an all-new career-based Empire Mode where players start out as an up-and-coming DJ on the road to becoming the head of a major entertainment empire, all of which is founded solely on their success as a DJ.

With the highly skilled DJ’s and music producers at FreeStyleGames – joined by Deadmau5, David Guetta, DJ Qbert, Tiësto and a crew of world renowned mixologists – dropping the beats, everyone will have a chance to experience the following songs in an all-new way.
