Acclaim Games announced today that their online game Dance! Online has launched. Players can participate in the Open Beta this weekend and dance to songs from Warner Music Group. Atlantic Records recording artist Cupid will also make a "personal virtual" appearance in Dance! Online.


"This is by far the closest collaboration any major music label has ever had with an online game" said Howard Marks, CEO of Acclaim Games.


"Dance! Online has started the music based game revolution which has captured the minds of hundreds of millions of players in Asia", said David Perry, the game's director and industry superstar designer.


"With the enormous popularity of dance-based games in Asia and other parts of the world, we're excited that our artists and music have the opportunity to reach the millions of fans who are participating in this growing phenomenon," said George White, Senior Vice President of Strategy and Product Development for WMG.
