Just Dance 2024 Edition is a 2023 dance rhythm game developed and published by Ubisoft. It was unveiled on June 12, 2023 during the Ubisoft Forward June 2023 presentation as the fifteenth installment in the series and the second annual song pack after its predecessor Just Dance 2023 Edition.[2][3] It was released on October 24, 2023 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.[4]

Gameplay

As with the previous installments of the franchise, players must mimic the on-screen coach’s choreography to a chosen song using the game's associated smartphone app (Nintendo Switch players have the option to use the console's Joy-Con controllers). 2024 Edition retains all of the features from 2023 Edition, but introduces new features within the Just Dance hub, such as "Song Sharing", which allows players from any Edition to share songs with each other. All owners of any Edition have access to all Just Dance+ songs and updates.[5] Camera tracking returns to the series as a feature in the game's smartphone app that utilizes the front-facing camera, first launched as a beta for iOS in December 2023 and supporting a limited number of songs from 2023 and 2024 Edition in single player mode.[6][7]

Story mode

A follow-up to the "Enter the Danceverses" story playlist in 2023 Edition, titled "Dance with the Swan", is part of the game.[8][9]

Following her defeat in the previous story, Night Swan begins her revenge plot. She steals Wanderlust's anthropomorphic disco ball, then uses it to kidnap Sara from the real world and corrupt her using her magic. She also uses the ball to attack Brezziana and Mihaly within their own worlds, and attempts to persuade her son, Jack Rose, back into her side by showing him a vision in which he rules over their world. Wanderlust, Brezziana, and Mihaly travel to Night Swan's world to rescue Sara, but all of them become corrupted and are taken into Night Swan's ship as her servants. Despite this, Mihaly is able to send a distress signal to Jack, who fails to reach the ship in time before it departs regardless.[10][11]
