Activision announces The Voice karaoke game

Music show The Voice is to feature in a new karaoke title.

Going by the same name, the game is coming to PS3 and Xbox 360 as well – get this – Wii U and Wii on October 21st.

The game will ship with a microphone.

Impress the coaches and watch them compete for you to join their team,” the blurb reads. From the Blind Auditions to the Battle Rounds, all the way to the Finale, experience the show with the ultimate goal of being named The Voice.

In Party Mode, battle together or against seven of your friends singing chart-topping hits spanning rock, R&B, pop and country genres. Singers can also practice real-world techniques in Voice Coach Mode like singing runs and harmonizing.”

None of the talent featured in the BBC shows will appear, with the game instead following the looser template set out by the assorted international versions of the show, which itself originated in The Netherlands.

UPDATE: Activision has told MCV that the game is only scheduled for the US and is not coming to the UK.
