    I paid for 3 months of Just Dance Unlimited, but it never activated. Ubisoft ignored my tickets.

    An excellent game that combines fun controls, incredible track selection, and lots of unlockables to provide a strong feeling of progression. Online play is icing on the cake which will keep you dancing into the new year. Love it.

    I paid for an Unlimited subscription. I didn't get it. Ubisoft is not responding.

    DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!

    Ubisoft is scamming gamers who pay for the subscription in this game. It has been two weeks and the subscription I paid for still hasn't activated. Ubisoft is ignoring all tickets, emails, and phone calls!

    I got scammed by Ubisoft, I paid for an additional yearly subscription to play more songs and it is not working no matter what I do. No response from Ubisoft.

    Do not buy this game. Do not support a company that cheats its customers and can't get its service in order.

    We bought this for our 5 year old kids, for PS4, the camera detection is absolutely awful, left our kids crying and frustrated because it was not working most of the time. It could detect adults instantly but not kids. We moved camera around and tried everything and no improvement.

    Suddenly, during the quarantine this game that I bought 3 years ago became my #1 played game of the month :)

    The content - 8/10: * The song selection is great (they have Jamiroquai!). Thought the choreography itself varies from meh to just good. For comparison, Just Dance 2020 have much funnier & enjoyable moves and combos (though less catchy songs). * I did actually enjoy Dance Lab.

    * The song selection is great (they have Jamiroquai!). Thought the choreography itself varies from meh to just good. For comparison, Just Dance 2020 have much funnier & enjoyable moves and combos (though less catchy songs).
    * I did actually enjoy Dance Lab. It's underdeveloped. But still a great gym.
    * The collectables are meh (repetitive avatars and stickers I didn't ask for).

    The interface - 6/10:
    * Main problem of the game. It's not user-friendly whatsoever: gift machine is slow af, no video previews for songs, browsing library is painful, connection to Just Dance unlimited fails after Switch goes to sleep mode). This is especially frustrating compared to JD2020 where they fixed almost all of this.
    * Joy-Con movement tracking accuracy is mostly ok. Not great, though.

    Just Dance Unlimited - 8/10:
    * In a sense, that's main value-prop of the game. And it's great. Many-many-many great songs. There are problems, though.
    * Again, it gets disconnected for no reason after Switch wakes up.
    * The movement tracking accuracy sucks for older songs (for JD games with numbers in the title and not years)
    * W/o pre-defined playlists the search is a pain.    … Expand

    Releasing this boring and repetitive game on the Switch doesn't change anything.

    Es un gran juego si lo que buscas es pasar un buen rato con tus amigos, pues contiene varias canciones que te pueden entretener pero no son muchas, me parece que pudieron agregar unas cuantas más.

    This game is a dancing game do I need to say more? yes of course. Just Dance is probably the best dancing game series in the world however if you are looking to buy a Just Dance game I do recommend getting one of the newer entries like Just Dance 2021.

    Just Dance 2018 keeps its predecessors' gameplay mechanics, which work wonders at parties and other gatherings and the track list is varied enough to provide some entertainment during several gaming sessions. This does not mean, however, that it does not need some innovation, preferably in the form of new game modes.

    Just Dance 2018 it’s a software with a precise purpose and an even more precise audience. If you’re looking for an excuse to dance you’re in the right place, but everyone else won’t find anything interesting here.

    Except for the new kids mode this is Just Dance as it always was - you either love it or loathe it. It might not be as accurate as the Dance Centrals of this world but it delivers fun.
