Glitch tries to backtrack his previous statement that involved a diss to Mo

In the Crew Challenge mode, Glitch puts a guard up because he thinks the player is spying on them for the sake of The Glitterati, but Mo assures him that they are not and allow them to hang out and rep for their crew, which Glitch shortly follows. Once impressed, Glitch haphazardly praises the player's talent with an unintentional diss to Mo, but he soon readjusts his praise to make it sound acceptable.

Dance Central 3

Glitch appears again in Dance Central 3 as a part of Hi-Def with four looks: Crew Look, Street Style, Retro Fitted, and DCI Agent. Street Style and Retro Fitted are unlocked from the start while the rest are unlocked by.

In the Story mode, Glitch gets sent back to the 1980s to learn moves from the era that can be used to stop Dr. Tan from furthering on with "Operation Lockstep", a plan to end the dancing world as they know it. During that time he was at Toprock Ave.. When the player arrives, Mo, who is also there, thinks that they are there to battle, and both subsequently start to battle. When Rasa, via Boomy, informs them otherwise, they stop, and Glitch states in disappointment that if they leave then the area will get reconstructed. In response, Mo says that priorities are first, but also mentions the reason he gave being an excuse to not go back in the time portal and vomit, which he previously did. They then both start to get in gear in taking Dr. Tan down; once they arrive back with the learned dance craze, Glitch feels sick, presumably from vomiting again, but Mo dismisses Glitch's sickness and tells him to practice some headspins, much to Glitch's disappointment. He later gets sent back to prehistoric times through the works of Dr. Tan, but gets sent back to the present again by DCI as the player traps Dr. Tan into the time warp and is seen spying on Miss Aubrey confronting Angel after talking with Emilia.

Dance Central Spotlight
