A lot of dance styles are represented from different areas of the world, but my wife and I were pleased to see more contemporary dance, which was enhanced by the backgrounds, clearly only abled to be powered by the stronger Switch tech. We came for the dancing, but we stayed for the songs.Ĭhoreography is at its peak in 2022, and the stylizations seen on the Switch benefit from no longer catering to the Wii or the Wii U. Leading 2022’s lineup with the Brazilian electronica jam “Baianá” and following up with the near universally known hit “Believer” by Imagine Dragons immediately kept us in and warmed us up for the next 38 songs included in this year’s edition. Because we’re both slowly drifting from our ability to quickly pick up on the latest hits, we were surprised by how much we wanted to dance to so many songs we never heard and that fall outside what we typically listen to (modern pop music isn’t our thing). It’s unquestionably the best Just Dance in a long time.Īlthough I have spent many hours playing Just Dance with a variety of people, my wife helped me with this review as she is a dance critic and an avid player of the franchise. Surprisingly, Just Dance 2022 does brings choreography that’s the best it’s ever been and includes unexpected jams that make you want to jump up and dance. Ubisoft has gone from trying to compel you to buy Just Dance every year, to knowing it will sell as reliably as sports giants like Madden and FIFA, so the developers only have to nail the choreography and song choices while they try to entice you to join its subscription service.

It’s the exact same interface as Just Dance 2021, which is the same as 2020, which is the same as 2019. As soon as you boot up Just Dance 2022, it immediately feels like Ubisoft is phoning it in.
