Kinect – Launch Games Line Up

Here is the list of games that will be available to buy when Kinect hits the shops on the 11th Nov 2010. There seems to be a bias towards fitness and dancing games amongst these first releases. I do hope developers get a bit more creative with the later releases. Kinect Adventures is bundled with the Kinect so you can’t buy it separately.

• Kinect Adventures (Good Science Studio/Microsoft)
• Kinectimals (Frontier/Microsoft)
• Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1 The Videogame (EA/EA Bright Light)
• Game Party: In Motion (Warner Bros. Interactive)
• Dance Central (MTV Games/Harmonix)
• Your Shape: Fitness Evolved (Ubisoft)
• The Biggest Loser Ultimate Workout (THQ)
• EA Sports Active 2 (EA Sports)
• Zumba Fitness (Majesco)
• Get Fit With Mel B (Black Bean Games/Lightning Fish)
• DanceEvolution (Konami)
• Dance Paradise (Mindscape/Smackdown Productions)
• Kinect Sports (Rare/Microsoft)
• MotionSports (Ubisoft)
• Sports Island Freedom (Konami/Hudson Soft)
• Kinect Joy Ride (Big Park/Microsoft)
• Fighters Uncaged (Ubisoft)
• Sonic Free Riders (Sega)

Out of 19 launch games, 5 are fitness related, 3 dance related, 5 sports related and the other 6 are a mixture of furry animals and Harry Potter.

Kinect is released on the 10th Nov 2010 only for Xbox 360.
