We've become pretty fond of the We Sing series over the years, having played it since its early days on the humble Wii - so it's nice to see it come back from its hiatus, with a whole bunch of new songs, and a pair of new platforms in the Playstation 4 and Xbox One. With multiple difficulty levels, oodles of modes to mix things up, and a song list chock full of some thirty tunes, new and old, We Sing is back, and jazzed up for the next generation of consoles. While the song selection definitely leans towards more recent tastes, there are a fair few golden oldies and well known favourites thrown in for good measure, making We Sing a definite crowd-pleaser, and a game that's perfect for parties.
The full song list is as follows:
- Fifth Harmony ft. Kid Ink - Worth It
- Pharrell Williams - Happy
- Demi Lovato - Let It Go
- Bruno Mars - Locked Out of Heaven
- Major Lazer & DJ Snake ft. MØ - Lean On

And that's your lot! With support for four USB microphones, you may be forgiven for thinking We Sing is a purely four player affair - but thanks to an accompanying mobile phone app, as many as ten people can get in on the karaoke fun, making for some rather loud sing offs! Whether you want a bog-standard competitive affair in 'Sing Off' mode, want to work together for a team score in the titular 'We Sing' mode or prefer to try your hand at the true karaoke mode, where you're crooning along to the instrumental versions all on your lonesome, We Sing promises barrels of laughs and musical multiplayer mayhem.
