Just Dance 2024

Lore & Background

A follow-up to the 'Enter the Danceverses' story playlist in 2023 Edition, titled 'Dance with the Swan', is part of the game. 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.

In Their Own Story

The apartment is dark except for the blue glow of the television. You've just finished a long shift, shoes still on, and the group chat is buzzing with a single message: "2024. Last song. You in?" You grab the controller, step into the middle of the living room, and the stage blooms to life around you—a sprawling rooftop bathed in magenta and gold, the city a smear of light below. The first beat drops, and for three minutes and forty seconds the world is nothing but rhythm, your arms cutting through the air, the on-screen dancer matching every lunge and spin. When the final pose holds and the score flashes, the chat erupts. You are, for one more night, a performer on a stage that only exists because you moved.

Reader's Guide

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. Camera scoring 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 Android in June 2024, and supporting a limited number of songs from 2023 and 2024 Edition in single player mode. Custom playlists returned on June 18, 2024, the same day that Season 3: Lights Out was released.
