For those who want a game that will get their body moving, Zumba Burn it Up! will be making its way to the Nintendo Switch come November 19, 2019, in North America, and on November 22, 2019, in Europe.

From the Zumba global movement, that “brings fun to fitness with over 15-million people taking classes across 186 countries,” Zumba Burn it Up! has been published by 505 Games.

Available now for pre-order from participating retailers, Zumba Burn it Up! invites “dance enthusiasts of all ages and levels to join the fitness fun with high-energy choreography to over 30 hip-shaking jams, including chart-topping hits from Cardi B, Bad Bunny & J Balvin, Ciara, Steve Aoki, Daddy Yankee, Play-N-Skillz & Elvis Crespo, Bomba Estéreo and DJ Ricky Luna ft.
