Trivia
- Dark Horse is the eleventh song by Katy Perry in the series.
- As of November 2018, Dark Horse is the only song by Katy Perry that is not available in Just Dance Unlimited or in Just Dance Now.
- Dark Horse was accidentally leaked on UbiBlog and Uplay.
- It was taken off of both pages immediately.
- This song was one of the first five leaked songs to be on Just Dance 2015, along with Summer, Happy, Burn, Built For This, and Dancing Queen, although Dancing Queen did not appear in the final game.
- Dark Horse is the first of three classic routines for a song by Katy Perry to not be a solo routine, it is followed by This Is How We Do and Swish Swish.
- I Kissed a Girl also has a non-solo routine, but that was an On-Stage routine.
- This is also her second routine to have a male dancer, after I Kissed a Girl (On-Stage Mode).
- Dark Horse is the second trio routine in the series where the lead and backup dancers are recorded separately, after The Fox (What Does The Fox Say?).
- Juicy J’s part was taken out from the version of the song used in the game.
- However, he can be heard saying "Love tripping" before the bridge.
- The line "We’re down to earth" is misinterpreted as "But down to earth".
- In the picture of the full song list, Dark Horse was not listed.
- The gameplay takes many elements from the music video.
- The background resembles the one in the music video a lot.
- The dancer is wearing an outfit similar to Katy Perry in the music video.
- The beginning is just like the second verse of the music video.
- The painting at the beginning and at the end of the routine is inspired on the one from the teaser of the official music video.
- Some of the moves after the first chorus are taken from the official music video.
- There is a total of eleven dancers in the Classic mode. However, only three are playable.
- In the song selection menu, four backup dancers can be seen instead of the two playable ones. This is the first time non-playable clone backups are seen in the background of the song selection menu for a song with backups. It is followed by Hey Mama.
- The Mashup is one of the four routines in which All I Want for Christmas Is You makes an appearance, with the others being Holding Out for a Hero’s, Summer’s, and All About That Bass’s Party Master Modes.
- On the World Dance Floor, whenever this song is chosen for play without voting, the backup dancers are not selectable. Instead, the player will choose between two topics (like solo routines that were chosen without voting or VIP), and the player will be advised to follow P2.
- In the Mashup, the coaches seem to have been enlarged.
- Dark Horse was one of the songs that was selected for the Just Dance 2015 World Cup.[5]
- In the Mashup, the unfinished pictogram for Iko Iko appears. This same pictogram also appears in The Fox (What Does The Fox Say?)’s mashup.
- Similar to It’s My Birthday (Just Dance VIP) and The Fox (What Does The Fox Say?) (Community Remix, Dark Horse (Community Remix) does not include pictograms. This is because it only counts scoring for the lead dancer.
- In the Just Dance Now files for Dark Horse, there are four beta pictograms that use the default pictogram colors (green, red, and magenta).
- In the Mashup of Fatima, the pictograms for P2 are pointed to a more orange color.
- In the Mashups for Birthday and Fatima, P1 and P3 are removed and only P2 is dancing.
- Dark Horse was supposed to be featured on Just Dance Unlimited, as seen in a screenshot.[6]
- The pictogram for Gold Move 3 in the Mashup is a cropped version of the Gold Move 1 pictogram from the original routine, resulting in it having a red outline.
- A cropped version of the Gold Move 1 pictogram was used instead of the Gold Move 3 pictogram because the pictogram color on the Gold Move 1 pictogram is most similar to gold.
- P2 (C2 only) is the first dancer in the series to have golden skin. It is followed by the Extreme version of Scream & Shout and the alternate version of OMG.
