Microsoft has just announced the 17 games that will be available on launch day with Kinect for Xbox 360, the tech giant’s highly anticipated controller-free gaming system.
Kinect, which launches on November 4, is Microsoft’s answer to the Nintendo Wii’s motion controllers, which helped turn that console into one of this generation’s most popular gaming devices. Both Sony and Microsoft have been playing catch-up with the PlayStation Move and Kinect, respectively.
Seventeen Kinect-enabled games will be available when the device makes its debut next month. Here’s the full list:
- Kinect Adventures: This is the game that is included with every Kinect device. It helps introduce gamers to the Kinect interface, letting them traverse the rapids, float around in space and challenge their friends to races, among other minigames.
- Kinectimals: Think Nintendogs, but with no controller.
- Game Party: In Motion: This includes a collection of party minigames like Darts.
- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows — Part 1 The Videogame: You can now control Harry’s magic with your hands.
- Your Shape: Fitness Evolved: A fitness game from Ubisoft that is similar to Wii Fit.
- Dance Central: This game, made by the creators of Rock Band, tracks your dance moves. We’ve heard good things about this one.
