Majesco Entertainment today announced that it’s publishing NBA Baller Beats, a basketball video game that will launch in fall 2012 with Kinect support for the Xbox 360.
Developed by HB Studios, NBA Baller Beats allows players to show off their basketball skills by using a real basketball while playing to the beat of an eclectic soundtrack. The Kinect motion sensor captures every movement of both player and ball.
”NBA Baller Beats introduces an unprecedented way to experience basketball through a video game like never before,” said Jesse Sutton, Chief Executive Officer of Majesco Entertainment. ”Our innovative play mechanic combined with Kinect technology puts the ball in players’ hands, tracking both full-body gameplay and ball movement, so players are going to have to get up and actually play basketball to get in the game. Ballers and fans alike will love this game.”
”We are excited to work with Majesco to provide basketball fans and gamers with a unique experience like NBA Baller Beats,” said Vicky Picca, Senior Vice President, Licensing & Business Affairs, NBA. ”Showcasing the energy and dynamic elements of the NBA against the backdrop of a compelling soundtrack will be fun for fans of all ages.”
NBA Baller Beats launches this fall exclusively for the Xbox 360, but just make sure you don’t bounce the ball into your TV screens! Ooops…
