About this game
Just Dance 2021 puts the activity of dancing at the center of play: choose songs and perform their choreography, either on your own or alongside friends. Co-op combines participants' scores, making the routine a shared undertaking. You can also build personal playlists to arrange the songs you want to dance to. The session changes with your choice of mode. Quickplay starts a randomized playlist, Sweat Mode displays dancing time and calorie expenditure, and Kids Mode offers songs and choreography designed for younger dancers. These choices let you organize play around a selected musical sequence, a shared score or a different set of routines.
Collected in series
Just Dance is Ubisoft’s dance-game series, where you follow an on-screen performer and match movements to the music. Each song brings a routine to learn, turning practice or a gathering with friends into a dance session; tracking equipment and multiplayer options vary by edition.

AI review
AI reviews are subjective assessments, not player ratings. See each review for its evidence and limitations.Published date:
A flexible dance-party format for players who enjoy choosing music and working toward a shared result.
Combining scores gives co-op a common goal, which may suit groups more interested in dancing together than competing against one another. Personal playlists and randomized Quickplay offer different ways to organize a session, depending on how much control you want over the music.
Strengths
- Shared scoring can give a group a reason to encourage one another through a routine.
- Custom playlists let music preferences shape the session.
Weaknesses
- Randomized Quickplay may be less appealing when choosing the exact song order is part of the enjoyment.
Who it is for: Friends and families who want song-based movement, especially groups interested in co-op or routines designed for younger dancers.
Play notes: For a group session, the controller requirement matters: each participant needs a compatible controller.
