DJ Hero logo Once I heard that there was going to be a DJ Hero game (by Activision), I got a bit excited. This could be really fun, and I could finally bring out the turntablist within me… through a video game. Hahaha. DJ Hero will feature more than 100 individual tracks transformed into more than 80 exclusive, original mixes by well-known DJs including: DJ Shadow (in-game character), DJ AM (in-game character), DJ Z-Trip (in-game character), Cut Chemist, and more.

Single player

Music genres include hip hop, R&B, Motown, electronica, and dance… which the game will allow creation of “original mixes” of songs. For example, you’ll see tracks from these artists: Gwen Stefani, Rick James, Nirvana, BEP, Marvin Gaye, Jay Z, Eminem, Beastie Boys, etc.

DJ + DJ, co-op
