A video showing a prototype build of DJ Hero 3 has surfaced on the internet and it has a surprising new mode.
Along with the standard button-mashing prompts for mixing tracks, the prototype shows a new dance mode that would have used the ill-fated Xbox accessory, Kinect.
The DJ Hero series was created by Freestyle Games but were gutted after DJ Hero 2 failed to meet sales expectations. This was partly due to the huge number of “Hero” games that Activision were churning out, saturating the market and leaving many people with very expensive accessories that could not use with other games.
They went on to be sold to Ubisoft and rebranded as Ubisoft Leamington and worked on games such as Tom Clancy’s The Division before being shut down completely in 2025.
We rather loved DJ Hero 2 and gave it 9/10 in our review.
