![]() The first few lines in "Crayon" translate to "head, shoulders, knees, and toes," with G-Dragon touching each respective body part in time. Even so, I just couldn't get over Just Dance's opening moves. The game replicates the original "Crayon" choreography from part of the chorus pretty closely, and its influence on the rest is apparent. Just Dance therefore takes most of its choreography inspiration from the dancers, albeit at half the speed. While G-Dragon does have dancers performing around him during "Crayon," many of his own movements are less dance and more pure swag. 'Bubble Pop!' by Hyuna (Bubblegum Version) Ranked in ascending order, here is every K-pop dance routine in Just Dance. Still, some Just Dance K-pop routines are better than others, whether because they adhere more closely to the official choreography, follow the spirit of the dance, look impressive, or are just plain fun. "We tried to use iconic dance moves, but we're not always allowed to replicate the whole choreography," said Ubisoft Asia managing director Steve Miller, speaking to UnGeek about Just Dance's K-pop routines.įortunately, Just Dance doesn't completely rechoreograph every K-pop song it includes, and is sometimes able to use segments of the original dances even if it can't use it all. While some do reference the official K-pop choreography, deviation is often necessary due to issues such as safety, practicality, and intellectual property rights. However, Just Dance's K-pop routines aren't always technically accurate themselves. If you’ve not been won over up to now then this isn’t the game to change your mind, but fans of the series can expect yet another solid entry to enjoy until next year’s release.Bias, comeback, and aegyo: What all those K-pop words actually mean Add in Unlimited and you’ve potentially a game to last you a lifetime – if you’re willing to pay up. There are a great range of new songs here, with some fun and challenging choreography and nice new visual styles that freshen things up somewhat. Ultimately, you likely know what you’re in for with Just Dance 2022. I would expect the Just Dance games will embrace the live service nature that is the next obvious step soon, but for now it’s an extra cost on top of the game price to consider, especially if it will be played a lot over the next year. A free trial is included with the game for 30 days, but ultimately it’s up to you whether you think the price is going to be worth it to play songs from games past. Just Dance Unlimited also returns, featuring over 700 songs from the series past for a monthly or yearly subscription fee. Even on standard play this is a great workout, but adding these into the mix is another great way to get some exercise in. Sweat mode returns alongside a co-op mode for players to team up in aiming for high cores rather than competing. It’s once again possible to pair a smart phone with the Just Dance app for those without Kinect, which works fine enough but it’s definitely best to play with Kinect if you can. Up to 6 players can take part providing you have the room, and the tracking is spot on. ![]() ![]() I spent my time with Just Dance 2022 using an Xbox One and the Kinect sensor, which as always is a fantastic way to play. It’s a nice change from the typical JD look, but used sparing enough that it doesn’t lose any impact or feel overdone. Other songs feature different styles such as full FMV-looking animations or a hybrid of live action and visual effects. Blue Sky video for example to find a stop motion panda bear hopping around environments that wouldn’t look out of place in a Wallace and Gromit short film. Here though there are a few songs that bring a new look to the fore. Most of the choreography is presented in classic Just Dance fashion with bright white dancers adorned with fantastic, bright clothing and accompanied by all sorts of flashy CGI effects and backgrounds. There is a pretty well balanced mix in the 40 songs on offer with enough to give most players something to enjoy playing. Some old classics feature too (You Make Me Feel(Mighty Real) by Sylvester) alongside some Just Dance versions such as Nails, Hair, Hips, Heels by Toderick Hall. Thanks to Xbox Capture being blocked, I’ve resorted to using these GIFs sent to us with the press pack – enjoy!Įlsewhere we have a mix of contemporary tunes (Level Up by Ciara, Boss Witch by Skarlett Klaw) and some even I’ve heard of (Pop/Stars by K/DA, Freed From Desire by Gala, Rock Your Body by Justin Timberlake).
