Just Dance 2 (abbreviated JD2) is a music game developed and published by Ubisoft Paris for the Wii. It is a sequel to Just Dance. It was released in North America on November 21, 2010. There are 44 new tracks and new modes. A sequel, Just Dance 3, was released in October 2011. The concept of the game is the same as the original Just Dance. Requiring only one Wii remote per player, up to four people can play at a time, as they follow the on-screen choreographed moves set to classic dance tracks. There are four new dance modes. In "Just Dance Mode" , players can get together and dance for as long as they want, just for the fun of it. Other options include, "Nonstop Shuffle" for a non-stopping gameplay, and "Medleys" in which short pieces of 5 songs are mixed. The second new mode, "Duets" allows players to dance together, and in the process forces them to pay more attention to the players around than instead of simply following on-screen prompts. "Dance Battle Mode" is a team mode that features up to 8 player support. The individual scores are the basis of the overall team scores. Lastly is " Just Sweat Mode" , which is an exercise mode that allows players to measure the energy they expend while dancing as well as set objectives to be met during their dance sessions.

Revision as of 18:39, 4 July 2020

Just Dance 2 is a dance game developed and published by Ubisoft. It is the second installment in the series. The game was released on October 12, 2010 in the NTSC region, October 14, 2010 in the PAL region, and December 8, 2011 in Korea for the Wii.

Gameplay

The concept of the game remains from the previous Just Dance installment, with players mimicking the dance moves of on-screen dancers for a score. There are four new dance modes, including 'Just Dance Mode' where players can get together and dance for an unlimited duration, "Non-Stop Shuffle" where gameplay is nonstop, and "Medleys" which include 5 short pieces of different songs which are mixed together.

"Duets" allow for players on the same console to dance together. "Dance Battle Mode" is a team mode that features up to 8 players support. "Just Sweat" is an exercise focused mode which sets objectives based around completing dance sessions.
