The rhythm gaming market on the DS has provided some of the most critically-acclaimed games on the handheld, including Elite Beat Agents and Rhythm Heaven. Now, THQ is looking to get some of Nintendo’s stake, by creating their own rhythm title, Beat City.
Developed by Universomo, Beat City is a game set in the titular world, where an evil corporation is destroying music. The player must slide and tap their way to victory on the Nintendo DS touch screen, keeping the beat and bringing life back to the town.
You may notice that, yeah, the game pretty much is Rhythm Heaven. No word yet on a release date, but expect it by the end of the year.
