During the SPARK 2025 online showcase on April 22, a wave of new games hit the spotlight—but one in particular got everyone talking: Just Dance: Party. Developed by Ubisoft Shanghai and co-published with Tencent, the game reimagines how we dance in front of a screen, ditching traditional motion controllers for something far more futuristic (and way more convenient).
Here’s the thing: you don’t need to wave your phone around anymore. Now, just stand it up next to your TV, aim the front camera at yourself, and there you are—your dance double comes to life on the TV, copying all your moves. It’s like making your own home a movie set, but without those odd suits.
You can play with others too, and not just in your house. You can dance outside in the park, in the kitchen, or any place with a big screen and Wi-Fi. To make it even better, the game lets you pick cool clothes and add-ons for your avatar to show off your style.
What really grabbed our attention? The promise of a full-body workout. According to early promos, a 30-minute session of Just Dance: Party can torch a serious amount of calories. So if you’ve been putting off cardio because the gym feels like a drag, this might be your new favorite excuse to break a sweat.
While global release details are still under wraps, the game has already received approval for launch in certain markets, and pre-registration is open now via a local website—though you’ll need a valid phone number to sign up.
Curious how your phone’s selfie cam stacks up against old-school motion tracking? Think this might replace your gym membership? Let’s break it down and chat in the comments.
