SingStar heading to PS4 this year

SingStar: Ultimate Party is heading to the PS4 and PS3 later this year as a 30-track compilation disc to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the series.

A free companion app for iOS and Android is also in the works, which will turn phones into compatible microphones.

The PS4 camera will also be used for augmented reality to turn player's front rooms into music sets and put masks on singers.

"I'm really excited about the new SingStar as we've really worked hard to bring the game right up to date for PS4 with a brand new look and feature set," said game director Chris Bruce.

"The new microphone app means SingStar is now for everyone, and we're looking forward to introducing a new generation of signers to the brand.

"Personally I can't wait to see some of the new videos the community will be sharing. They never fail to surprise us with their inventiveness, so who knows what they're going to do with the new PS4 camera and augmented reality effects... it's sure to be entertaining!"
