In what has to be one of the strangest displays of a story mode in a non-Japanese video game (ohhh, BURN!), Harmonix has released unto us a glimpse of the dark, twisted world of Dance Central 3. A world only you, and a friend or two, can save. This is what Harmonix had to say:

This October, Harmonix Music Systems presents Dance Central 3, only on Kinect® for Xbox 360®. In addition to providing players with the award-winning dance gameplay they’ve come to expect and the hottest soundtrack yet in a dance game, Dance Central 3 will further captivate players with a heart-pounding saga of time travel and dance crimes like they’ve never experience before!

It sounds intriguing, right? Let us know what you think in the comments below, and check out the trailer to see just how weird it is for yourself. Watch GU for everything Dance Central related.
