Release Date: October 14, 2025
The 17th installment of the popular dance series, developed and published by Ubisoft. Just Dance 2026 introduces the Party mode used for dance competitions. There are also 40 new songs, from artists such as Dua Lipa, Madonna, OneRepublic, and Bruno Mars.
Just Dance is one of the flagship series in Ubisoft's portfolio and it has been popular for years due to its "party" nature. Just Dance 2026 described here is the seventeenth main installment of this dance series.
In terms of mechanics, Just Dance 2026 does not stand out from its predecessors. The game involves dancing to songs from various singers and bands that were at the top at the time of its release.
To track our movements (which should match the animations displayed on the screen as closely as possible), the game uses controllers (in the Nintendo Switch version) or a dedicated mobile app (on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S). How well we perform is reflected in the number of points we earn.
The list of 40 songs introduced in Just Dance 2026 includes hits such as APT. (ROSE & Bruno Mars), Houdini (Dua Lipa), Counting Stars (OneRepublic), Hung Up (Madonna), or All Star (Smash Mouth).
We can check the training mode already known from Just Dance 2025 which measures the number of calories we burn while dancing. Just Dance 2026 also adds a Party mode that takes the form of a dance competition. Additionally, there is a challenge mode to test our skills. We can play both alone and in local and online multiplayer mode (competing or cooperating with other players).

Just Dance 2026 Edition is still just as fun as it always was. It’s a great title to get your friends and family together around the TV all the while losing a few calories in the process. The experience is a bit clumsy this time around and some bugs can get in the way, but that won’t stop you from enjoying the latest round of songs in this year’s iteration of Ubisoft’s popular dancing series. All you gotta do is Just Dance. ?
Cloud Dosage: 3.7 / 5 by Jon Scarr
Just Dance 2026 Edition refines Ubisoft’s dance formula with sharper visuals, smoother menus, and flexible control options. The new camera mode brings back Kinect-style freedom, while songs like the Bluey medley make it easier for everyone to join in. Subscription limits still sting, but strong choreography and a polished presentation keep the rhythm going for fans old and new.
