Just Dance 2016 Announced

The megahit dance series is back once again, and when Just Dance 2016 hits on October 20th on Wii U, Wii, PS4, PS3, Xbox One and Xbox 360, it’s going to be bigger than ever. Packing new modes and new songs, Just Dance 2016 also supports the Just Dance Controller App, which turns your smartphone into a motion controller and lets up to six players join in without using a camera peripheral. Available for the first time on Wii U, the app also supports PlayStation 4 and Xbox One – and as a bonus, a free demo using the Controller App will be available this summer, letting fans try out the feature while dancing to “Blame,” by Calvin Harris ft. John Newman.

Speaking of which, here’s an early look at the track list for Just Dance 2016:

“Want to Want Me” by Jason Derulo
“Uptown Funk” by Mark Ronson Ft. Bruno Mars
“All About That Bass” by Meghan Trainor
“Hey Mama” by David Guetta ft. Nicki Minaj and Afrojack
“Animals” by Martin Garrix
“Blame” by Calvin Harris ft. John Newman
“Born This Way” by Lady Gaga
“Gibberish” by MAX
“Hangover (BaBaBa)” by Buraka Som Sistema
“I Gotta Feeling” by The Black Eyed Peas
“Ievan Polkka” by Hatsune Miku
“Let’s Groove” by Equinox Stars
“William Tell – Overture” by Rossini

The new modes are poised to add even more depth to the Just Dance experience, beginning with the all-new Dance Party, which lets players work together toward a combined high score, or compete in an epic dance-off. Sweat mode is back, letting you customize workout playlists and track calories, songs, and time spent dancing. And, the Dance Quests mode will give players a chance to unlock four-song quests and try their hardest to beat the game. Additionally, Just Dance 2016 will also introduce Just Dance Unlimited, a new streaming service that will regularly deliver exclusive new content and offer subscribers 150 songs at launch.
