“Our goal has always been to make the entire world dance. With
60 million copies sold to date, more than 118 million dancers
worldwide, and Just Dance 2017 on the way, we’re closer than
ever to achieving that goal,” said Marine de La Seiglière,
Executive Producer. “We’re proud of finding ways of adapting the
Just Dance experience to fit the devices our players already own
and the ways that they naturally consume content today, whether
it’s on their phones or through on-demand services.”
Six game modes will be available for players including the all
new Just Dance Machine, exclusive to current-gen consoles and
PC, a fun and frantic dance experience that will have players
testing their skills through a variety of dance types including
flamenco, ballet and the cancan. Fan-favorite Sweat + Playlists
mode, which helps players customize workouts with their favorite
tracks is back, along with classic modes including Just Dance
Quest and Just Dance TV, the in-game video channel. The World
Dance Floor is also back to the game.
Both the Just Dance Unlimited service and the Just Dance®
Controller App will see additional content and features with the
launch of Just Dance 2017. Since its successful launch last
year, the Just Dance Unlimited service has seen its catalog
expand each month with new content. The subscription streaming
service, available for current-gen consoles owners and PC
players, will be enriched with more exclusive tracks, offering a
catalog of more than 200 songs at the launch of Just Dance 2017
and easy-to-navigate curated playlists to help players set the
mood for any Just Dance party.
The Just Dance Controller App makes the game more accessible for
current-gen owners and PC with its phone scoring technology that
allows players to dance without additional accessories like
cameras. With Just Dance 2017 the app will become a hub for
players’ activities and a way to access exclusive content from
Just Dance TV as well as a way for players to apply fun filters
to their best Just Dance photos and share them with their
friends.
Along with the standard version of the game, a Gold Edition,
which includes all of the Just Dance 2017 tracks along with
three months access to Just Dance Unlimited, is now available
for pre-order.
Just Dance 2017 will be available on all motion-control gaming
platforms, including Nintendo’s Wii™, Wii U™ and NX systems,
Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system,
and PlayStation® 4 computer entertainment system. For the first
time in the history of the franchise, the game will also be
launched digitally on Windows PC.
