"Pigstep (Just Dance Version)" (referred to in-game as "Pigstep (Just Dance x Minecraft version)") by Lena Raine, Minecraft, and Dancing Bros. is featured on Just Dance+.
Appearance of the Dancer[]
The coach is a man dressed as Steve, one of the nine default skins of the player in Minecraft. He has light brown skin and wears a cube shaped mask of Steve, which has brown hair and dark purple eyes pupils. His clothes consist of a sky blue t-shirt with dark cyan pixels resembling the details, blue trousers, and pair of gray shoes with gray socks. He also wears a yellow glove on his right hand and has a pixel glowing outline which changes colors to purple, orange, and light blue.
At the start of the routine, he holds a diamond pickaxe in his hands, which he throws away for most of the routine.
Background[]
The routine starts in a Nether fortress, which is decorated with torches, an Item Frame, a crafting table, a chest, and a jukebox. Steve pulls out the Pigstep music disc and places it inside of the jukebox.
When Steve first starts dancing with his pickaxe, the wall behind him slowly glows and breaks away, revealing the Nether. Many piglins can be seen dancing behind Steve as he moves along a bridge towards a Nether portal. He passes through and arrives in the Overworld, in front of a hill with several streams falling into a river.
The world can be seen building itself as Steve dances through it. Several animals, such as chickens, pigs, sheep, and pandas are seen scattered throughout. Later, a village can be seen in the distance.
As it turns to night, Alex, another one of the player’s default skins, walks in from the left and waves to Steve while there are several glowing blocks of stained glass being lifted from the ground. Some allays can also be seen floating around the environment. Alex is later carried away on a platform made of stained glass. Skeletons and zombies also spawn in the world and start dancing with Steve. A path of stained glass is formed as Steve keeps dancing, later turning into a platform, carrying him into the air. The platform reaches the top of a waterfall that provides an aerial view of the village, allowing it to catch up with the platform Alex is on. As the song ends, Steve takes the music disc out of the jukebox and passes it to Alex.
Gold Moves[]
