KickBeat Uses Your Own Music To Kick Some Ass

KickBeat for the PlayStation 3 and PS Vita takes the unlikely genres of fighting and rhythm games and headbutts them together. KickBeat like many other fighting games does have its own single player story for you to play through and enjoy. Once you have mastered that it is time to take on your own much library in a fight to the death.

Using your own music with KickBeat is simple, import a track from your PS3 or PS Vita, tap Triangle to the beat, keep tapping Triangle to set the beat, once you’ve done that long enough the track generator will check the song and generate a custom track for your song and it’s finally time to let you fists fly and your body move to the beat. Check out the trailer below and get ready for body moving and face busting as KickBeat launches with Cross Buy via PSN on September 3rd 2013.


PRESS RELEASE

KickBeat Never Ends! How to Make Your Own KickBeat Tracks


KickBeat will release for PS Vita and PS3 on September 3 in North America, and September 4 in Europe and supports Cross-Buy.

The studio spent the better part of 2 years developing the KickBeat track generator tools, focusing on ease of use for the player, thus providing endless replay value to the game. Yes, we give you 18 licensed tracks in the single player campaign, but we thought that many of you would love to experiment with your own music and make your own KickBeat levels.

The process of creating your own KickBeat tracks is quite simple and we do 99% of the work for you. We made a nice little video outlining the process of using your own music to make KickBeat tracks, which can be linked from the Zen Studios YouTube Channel, or downloaded from the Zen Studios Press Center.

There are four simple steps to creating your own KickBeat Track:
1.     Select a track from your music library on your PS Vita or PlayStation 3.
2.     Find the rhythm by tapping the Triangle button along to the beat of the track.
3.     Once you find the beat, continue tapping the Triangle button to set the beat.
4.     The Track Generator will check the rhythm to ensure the beat is correct.
Once these steps are finished, a custom track will be generated using the selected song.
We have been experimenting with many different kinds of music, ranging from classical to rap, dubstep and even metal. It’s really fun to see what kind of fight you end up with. If you really want to beat your enemies to the latest Beiber track, well, you can do that in the privacy of your own screen.
