This is literally the most mistimed possible time of year for an April Fool's joke.

So… basically Street Master Mode from DDR X, huh?

I can see it now:

EMI is walking through a rain-soaked street at night. A STRANGER confronts her.

I have a feeling that we won't hear any updates about this for a long time but if it doesn't get cancelled then wow I can't imagine how this will play out without it being hilarious.

Wait, Konami seen russian B-tier sci-fi movie called Dance to Death (spoiler: it flopped in box-office, hard), and realized that was the best idea?

Still can't top that supposed upcoming Tetris movie trilogy in terms of sheer WTF-ness.

Oh boy. And a lot of people thought that a Hollywood adaptation of Your Name was a bad idea.

I saw the trailer of that movie and I can understand the reasons why it failed. In this particular case, it doesn't need to be a extremely grim film, since it could be a musical one, and Hollywood is very good on doing musical films.
