Zumba Fitness 2 to feature Pitbull, Former Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger and Yolanda Be Cool & DCup - Wii

Zumba Fitness 2 features the hit track “Pause” from international music sensation and Sony Music recording artist Pitbull, whose blended music is a favorite among the Zumba Fitness community. Additional Zumba Fitness 2 tracks announced today include an exclusive Zumba remix of “Poison,” the dance hit from former lead singer of the Pussycat Dolls, Nicole Scherzinger, and club favorite “We No Speak Americano” by Yolanda Be Cool & DCup, which has sold more than 1 million copies in the U.S. alone.


The original Zumba Fitness game is the best-selling fitness game in North America this year and has sold 3 million copies worldwide. The sequel, Zumba Fitness 2, features more than 30 new sizzling dance tracks from the Zumba program, many created by Grammy-winning producers. The latest title gets players moving with Zumba creator Beto and international celebrity instructors Tanya Beardsley and Gina Grant as they guide players through exhilarating choreography that spans 20 different international dance styles. For the first time, players can customize their own class with their favorite routines, follow their improvement through an all new Progress tracker and track calories burned. Whether playing in Single Song, Full Class or Zumba Party modes that support up to 4 dancers, players will have a blast with this unique dance fitness experience that shapes, tones and transforms their bodies and makes them forget they’re even exercising.

Zumba Fitness 2 is coming to Wii this November and will be released on a second platform in early 2012.
