Hasbro is introducing a new Twister Dance game which combines dance music with the Twister spots. Pop diva Britney Spears has created a Twister remix of ‘Till the World Ends’ especially for the game. She will also be featured on the game packaging, in television ads and in dance instruction videos that will be released in Fall 2012.

Players will also be able to move to the beat of songs featuring Ke$ha and Willow Smith. They will also be able to connect any mp3 player to the console to dance to their own tunes, with the built-in beat detection system turning songs into dance routines.

Twister Dance will be available in Fall 2012 for around $34.99.
