Ubisoft announced Just Dance: Decades of Hits, the newest edition in the Just Dance franchise, on September 10, 2026. The game launches October 13, 2026 on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, and a Nintendo Switch 2 version follows on November 10, 2026.
The announcement, published on the Ubisoft News site by Brittany Spurlin, describes a release that pairs new songs and visuals with an all-new Adventure Mode. Ubisoft says the game has something for every generation and delivers hits from every era to players’ living rooms.
On the official product page, Ubisoft presents the game under the tagline “Every Era. One Floor” and says it is the first time a Just Dance experience has been built entirely around one theme. The page describes a release that celebrates the music and memories that shaped generations, spanning disco-era classics, 1980s anthems, 2000s favorites and present-day hits.
The product page invites players to choose their decade, describing every dance as an opportunity to revisit a favorite memory or make a new one together.
A 35-Song Tracklist Across the Decades
Ubisoft says the game contains 35 songs, and the announcement names some of them: Mamma Mia by ABBA, It’s Tricky by Run-DMC, Uptown Girl by Billy Joel, No Scrubs by TLC, Wannabe by Spice Girls, Bye Bye Bye by *NSYNC, Feel Good Inc. by Gorillaz, Turn Down for What by DJ Snake and Lil Jon, Danza Kuduro by Don Omar featuring Lucenzo, Manchild by Sabrina Carpenter and NUEVAYoL by Bad Bunny.
The product page maps those songs to their decades: Mamma Mia for the 1970s, It’s Tricky for the 1980s, Wannabe for the 1990s, Bye Bye Bye for the 2000s, Turn Down for What for the 2010s and NUEVAYoL for the 2020s. Ubisoft says the tracks are paired with unique choreography and describes the tracklist as ranging from easy to follow to satisfyingly challenging, aimed at getting players of all ages moving together.
Adventure Mode
The new Adventure Mode follows Lyra, identified in the announcement as the daughter of Dr. Gigavolt, on a journey through six decade-themed worlds. Along the way, players dance to decade-defining songs, take on mini-activities and unlock exclusive rewards while working to help rescue Dr. Gigavolt. Ubisoft bills the mode as lighthearted and designed to bring generations together.
Six-Player Dancing, Party Mode and Workout Mode
Just Dance: Decades of Hits supports local dancing for up to six people, a feature the announcement frames around friends and family dancing together. A phone can serve as a controller, and Ubisoft says that removes the need to purchase extra hardware accessories. The product page says smartphone control lets players start in seconds, and it positions the game for family game nights, birthday celebrations and get-togethers with friends.
In Party Mode, the rules change every round, an approach the announcement bills as chaotic fun for everyone, while Workout Mode logs the calories burned with each dance for players who prefer a more focused approach to their dancing. The product page also highlights Party Mode’s unexpected twists and Workout Mode as a way to stay active. A new multiple dancer card system lets players personalize their profiles.
Earlier Editions in One Place
According to the announcement, anyone who owns both Just Dance: Decades of Hits and the Just Dance 2023 through Just Dance 2026 editions gets combined access to all of their songs on the same console, in one place, without switching games or moving between separate menus. The combined access also extends to songs from purchased Music Packs and to songs available through an active Just Dance+ subscription.
Just Dance: Decades of Hits is available to wishlist for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, and Ubisoft’s product page carries live preorder links alongside the game’s trailer. The Nintendo Switch 2 version follows on November 10, 2026.
