Dance Dance Revolution: Hottest Party is an upcoming title for the Wii from Konami scheduled for a 2007 release. It will be an installment in the popular rhythm game series Dance Dance Revolution. In addition to the traditional dance pad, which will utilize the Wii's GameCube controller ports, Hottest Party will also support the Wii Remote and nunchuk attachment, allowing the user to use their hands while playing. In the demo, a new type of arrow, resembling two vertical lines, signified motioning with the Wii Remote or nunchuk instead of stepping on the mat. As of now, the only motions are moving or shaking the remote and nunchuk, though Konami is planning to allow more actions.

A demo recently shown to press included three songs. The final game will include 80 songs from the last "four decades of music".[2] Several modes of multiplayer for up to four players will be included, including an upgraded version of the classic Battle Mode, a new Friendly Sync mode in which all participants must perform actions in sync to get credit for them, and an as-yet-unexplained Support Mode.

The dance mats from Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix will be compatible with the game.[3]
