Unlike many rhythm games, to become a music legend in We Rock: Drum King youonly require two Wii Remotes, rather than having to clutter your livingroom with potentially expensive instruments.

Developed exclusively for the Nintendo Wii by DEL, We Rock: Drum King takes full advantage of the innovative motion-sensing capabilities ofthe console. The game is played by moving the remotes as if you’re ‘airdrumming’. Different drums – including snare, toms, hi-hat and bass –are simulated by waving the Wii Remotes while pressing a differentbutton.

Wannabe drummers know exactly when and what drum to hitthanks to coloured indicators that scroll down the screen in time tothe tune. The difficulty can be scaled too, so that beginners canpick-up-and-rock-out, whereas experienced beat masters can crank up thechallenge to 11.

We Rock: Drum King will be released exclusively for Nintendo Wii in Europe in April 2009.
