Background[]
The routine takes place in Wasterra, a desert of various rock formations in the distance and a circular platform where the coaches stand, surrounded by four rocky rings that spin, arranging themselves accordingly to the choreography. Each ring has a junk totem with mechanized articulation that represent each coach. Throughout the song, there is sand dust flowing near the ground.
The map starts on a title card stylized with a tribal-like font floating over the desert before turning into dust. Hawks can be heard on this bit. When the song starts, there is an intro sequence that shows each coach either standing by or sitting on their respective totem. It cuts to a front view of the coaches. So’s and Hea’s totems are already in frame, while Kyung’s and Bong’s come in simultaneously as them.
When the first verse starts, only Kyung’s totem stays. It consists of a base and an U-shaped structure made of dirty tires, tubes, cables, both ends resembling crocodile heads. Later, So’s totem takes its place. It resembles a panda with its arms out. It has gears for eyes and a torso built with speakers. Before the pre-chorus starts, all totems align behind the coaches and then move away from each other. As the chorus is about to start, the sky turns from noon to sunset, and the totems align again for a bit before returning to their position. Their eyes light up with the beat of the song. On the post-chorus, only the totems of the coaches on the front stay in frame.
Before the second verse starts, it turns noon again and only Hea’s totem stays. It resembles a purple and yellow jaguar with its arms and claws out. Bong’s totem takes it place. It resembles a red owl with its wings spread open, forming an U. There is a big tire leaning on it. The second pre-chorus stays the same as the first, except it only has the panda totem on screen when So slides on the ground.
On the first war cry of the second post-chorus, the ground lights up with white and yellow lines, which keeps happening until the song ends, and in sync with the totems' eyes lighting up. After the first time it happens, an eclipse occurs, causing the sky to reveal a starry night sky. When the outro begins, glowing paint appears on the totems. They align one last time and the song ends with the sky turning back to noon.

Routine[]
- Boombayah is the first routine for a song by Blackpink not to be choreographed by Mehdi Kerkouche.
- Black Mamba, Boombayah, Jopping, and Pop/Stars are the third through sixth Classic routines to be rated Extreme for difficulty, after Part of Me (on Just Dance 4) and Drum Go Dum.
- Boombayah and Pop/Stars are the third and fourth Quartets to be rated Extreme for difficulty, after Worth It (Extreme Crew Version) and Drum Go Dum.
- From Just Dance 2022 to 舞力无限, Bong’s coach selection image has two faint yellowish lines, one at the top and one on the bottom left corner.
- In the updated image found in the Just Dance+ servers, the latter has been made more visible.
- The routine uses a slightly simplified version of the official choreography.
- In a behind-the-scenes video, it can be seen that a mattress is placed on the green screen during the part when So slides on the floor, which explains the cuts in the routine.[citation needed]
- The teaser for Boombayah was prematurely uploaded two hours prior to that for Girl Like Me on September 21, 2021. It was then deleted after a few minutes and reuploaded the following day.
- Due to the lack of an album background for the song, the Just Dance Now cover featured a placeholder background upon the release of Boombayah on the service.
- This was later fixed with an updated cover.
- On Just Dance Now, the song selection menu on computer places Boombayah before any other map whose song title starts with the letter B.
- However, on mobile, the map is placed correctly.
- The coaches returned as the coaches of Pink Venom, albeit in drastically different appearances.
- Additionally, Kyung and So have swapped positions.
