The Voice of Germany, which will be
launched on November 8th, 2012, is the official game version of the
extremely successful music show of the same name, the second season of which
has been broadcast since October 18th on ProSieben and since October
19th on SAT.1. bitcomposer Games and flashpoint AG are going to
release this music and party game in two different editions.
In addition to the
stand-alone edition, priced at €39.95, there will be a premium value bundle,
including two quality Logitech microphones, at a price of €59.95.
This
singing and party game is being produced and co-developed by UK based independent
games production company and publisher, Wired
Productions. Wired is no stranger to singing and party games;
their portfolio includes, among others, the hugely popular and successful
We-Sing™ series on Nintendo Wii, which has also been successfully distributed
by flashpoint AG in Germany.
Wired worked on The Voice of Germany with long-term
collaborators – the France based studio – Le Cortex, who are also experts in
the area of music games.
According to Jason Harman, Operations and Production Director with
Wired, the outstanding factor was not just the extra complexity that comes with
a significant TV license, but rather, “creating an experience that is oriented
as closely as possible to the show. Here, it is about the voices of the
singers, not about colorful animations. This allows the player to experience
the show as it is in reality.”
Frédéric Sommer, the Project Director at Le Cortex, comments,
“We
believe that we have managed to create a product that reflects the spirit of
the show.”
This has been achieved with the help of the KaraEngine™, which was
developed especially for The Voice of Germany. The KaraEngine™, which is set to redefine
technical standards in the singing game genre, drastically minimizes annoying
latency times, thus guaranteeing a smooth playing experience.
The Voice of Germany also distinguishes
itself through the unique quality of its track listing: 30 top-notch titles by
international artists, all of which have achieved top ten chart positions,
offer a balanced mix of German and English language tracks. Moreover, this is
the first time that most of the songs have been part of a music and singing
game.
