"Ghostbusters" by Ray Parker Jr. is featured on Just Dance 2014, Just Dance Now, Just Dance Unlimited, and 舞力无限. It is also available in Kids Mode if the player has a Just Dance Unlimited subscription.
The song also has a Sweat Version.
Appearance of the Dancers[]
The coaches are characters from the movie Ghostbusters. All first three coaches have a red Proton Pack with black parts carried in their backs, steel blue jumpsuits with the Ghostbusters logo in their right shoulder part, yellow name tags, two pockets in the chest area, and a yellow belt-like strap connecting to the pack. They also wore yellow undershirts, red elbow guard pads, and black shoes. They are all surrounded by a steel blue outline with the exception of Slimer, who is surrounded by a green glowing ghostly outline.
P1[]
P1 is Dr. Peter Venkman. His hair is black and short. He has red complex goggles, which are rested on his head. His jumpsuit is partially closed, exposing the upper parts of his undershirt, and has a black watch in his left wrist.
P2[]
P2 is Dr. Egon Spengler. His hair is black and styled as a neatly combed big tuft, which has a long volume. He also has a goatee. He wears glasses with red frames. His jumpsuit is open, revealing his undershirt. He has a yellow bandana tied in his left thigh, just above his knee. He also wears a black watch in his left wrist.
P3[]
P3 is Dr. Raymond "Ray" Stantz. His hair is black and styled in an afro. His sleeves, unlike the others, covers the rest of his arms, leaving only his hands exposed. His jumpsuit is nearly closed, barely exposing his undershirt. He also wears a green glove.
P4[]
P4 is Slimer. He is a ghost, with a green and crumbled, slimy appearance. He has a wide gaping mouth full of humanoid teeth and a peach-colored tongue with peach-colored gums. His eyes are also peach-colored. He has no legs and floats from the ground. He has a purple-blue smudge in his right hand, representing his glove.
At one point in the routine, Slimer will possess the other three coaches, who will gain a green overlay effect in their colors and exude green ghostly aura. Before the next pre-chorus starts, the affected coaches will regain their original colors and outlines.
Background[]
The routine takes place in the night. There is a thick purple and white mist around, and in the sky is a smokey spiral. An image of Gozer's temple appears in the background from time to time. The Stay Puft Marshmallow Man also appears near the end of the routine.
Gold Moves[]
Classic[]
There is 1 Gold Move for each coach in this routine:
Gold Move: This is a left-to-right Wave Gold Move:
- P1: Put your arms in front of you, and face the left.
- P2: Slowly swirl your arms in a circle, then move them up and move them to the right.
- P3: Throw your arms in front of you while facing to the left, and then doing the same thing while facing the right.
- P4: Point up with your right arm with your left arm in your chest, and point up with your left arm with your right arm in your chest.

Trivia[]
General[]
- Ghostbusters is referenced in the lyrics of Wild Wild West.
- While the alternate routine was added to 舞力无限 in Season 15, Ghostbusters was added to 舞力无限 in Season 32. Along with This Is How We Do, they mark the fourth and fifth times an alternate routine is released before its Classic counterpart in 舞力无限, after Hips Don’t Lie, It’s You, and Bad Romance.
- They are the fifth and sixth instances among all online music catalogs in the Just Dance series, after Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go in Just Dance Unlimited and the aforementioned.
- The classic version was supposed to be added to 舞力无限 as part of Season 10, but was canceled.[4] It was later added in Season 32.
Classic[]
- Ghostbusters and Prince Ali are the first two routines in the main series to have characters from movies or television series as the coaches.
- Thus, they are also the second and third routine in the main series to have coaches with names (excluding those whose names have been given by Ubisoft, such as Jewelry Robin and Inspector Thomas Dance), after Just Mario.
- Ghostbusters is the first routine to have one playable dancer that does not have any legs.
- Slimer’s costume is actually colored blue in real life, in order to not make it blend with the green screen.
- If one plays as slimer on the Xbox 360/One or the PlayStation 4 (Camera), they still have to move their legs like the other dancers to score points, even though Slimer does not have legs.
- During development, Slimer’s color scheme was slightly darker.
- This Beta element can be seen in the Kids Mode trailer and Just Dance Now.
- Ghostbusters could be seen in the Just Dance 2014 announcement trailer for a very short amount of time before it was officially announced.
- Dr. Peter Venkman and Slimer’s avatars exist in Just Dance 2014, but do not appear in the game for availability (akin to Dr. Peter Venkman, Dr. Egon Spengler, and Genie of Prince Ali).
- There is also an unused avatar of a bedsheet ghost, which has a reflection of a bowling pin in it.
- In Just Dance 2014 and older versions of Just Dance Now, the Gold Move pictograms for Dr. Peter and Dr. Egon faded three to four seconds too early.
- This was fixed after the addition of the updated pictograms.
- As of an unknown date, some new pictograms in the style of Just Dance 2016 have been added for the Gold Move part.
- In the Just Dance 2018 trailer for Just Dance Unlimited, the pictogram bar is affected by a glitch: when a pictogram reaches the end, another random one accidentally flashes before the correct one fades away.[5]
- This glitch can also be seen in many preview gameplays for Just Dance 2018, as well as in some Just Dance Now previews.
- Ghostbusters was originally planned to release on Season 10 for 舞力无限 to celebrate Halloween, however, due to China not allowing to celebrate Western festivals, it was scrapped and replaced by other routines.
Mashup[]
- When the Sweat dancer appears at the end of the Mashup, some pictograms are missing.
