Harmonix announced at E3 2011 that all songs (including DLC) from Dance Central can be exported to Dance Central 2. Harmonix have also included a forum within the games official website which allows users to vote for which songs they would like to see released as future DLC. Each song will cost 240 Microsoft Points, which is more expensive than anything on the official Rock Band Music Store, due to the choreography, motion-capture, and voiceovers required for each new routine. Harmonix offers downloadable content for Dance Central. There are no performance gains to be had when installed. When installed on the Xbox 360 Hard Drive, the game takes up 1.6GB of space. This is a combination of all songs of this difficulty, which unlocks once the player has scored at least 4 stars on each song. Each difficulty level is finished up by a challenge.

There is also an additional unlockable dancer avatar. Similarly new venues are unlocked by increasing total stars on all songs, or by completing challenges.

Break It Down! mode runs the user through each dance move used in the selected song.As with previous Harmonix titles, varying difficulty determines the complexity of the moves, allowing players of all skill levels to enjoy the game. These small diagrams, complete with a name for each one, allow the player to see which move he should currently be performing and which move will follow. To allow the player to know which steps are coming up, the right hand side of the screen displays dance slides. Success is also measured by a ring at the feet of the center dancer which fills as you perform the correct steps. If you fail to match the movement of the dancer, the part of your body which is at fault lights up on the center dancer model. The main screen shows dancers demonstrating the moves you must mirror in order to score points. Due to the lack of a life bar as in previous Harmonix games you are unable to fail songs, basing it all on how well your score and star rating are. As you perform a string of successful moves, you build up a score multiplier gaining you more points for each step. You are scored on how accurately you perform each move and aim to achieve a 5 star rating, not too different from star ranking system found in the Rock Band and Guitar Hero series'. The on-screen action is divided into three parts: Your score, the dancer, and the dance slides.Ī boombox to the left hand side displays your score and multiplier as well as your star rating.
