Country Dance All Stars, the next iteration in the top-selling Country Dance™ video game franchise, brings a whole new hands-free experience to the dance party.

Share the fun with friends as the Kinect sensor snaps photos throughout each routine.  Plus, all new downloadable content (DLC) support allows you to keep the party going with downloadable song packs featuring new choreography that will be released post launch.
