Is Just Dance: Decades of Hits Just Dance 2027?

Is It Just Dance 2027? Short Answer

No — there is no officially documented Just Dance game titled Just Dance 2027. The game Ubisoft released in October 2026 is called Just Dance: Decades of Hits, and that is the name used on Ubisoft's own pages, on the Nintendo store listing, and in Ubisoft's launch announcement. Nothing in the official materials describes the game as "Just Dance 2027," so treating the two names as interchangeable is a fan assumption rather than a documented fact.

What the Game Is Actually Called

Just Dance: Decades of Hits is a console game developed and published by Ubisoft. It released on October 13, 2026 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, with a Nintendo Switch 2 version following on November 10, 2026 — a schedule Ubisoft set out in its September 10, 2026 announcement, which you can read on the Ubisoft news site.

The title itself is the clearest signal. Instead of a year, the subtitle describes the game's organising idea: songs drawn from the 1970s through the 2020s. Ubisoft's messaging leans on that theme rather than on a year, with the tagline "Every Era. One Floor."

How It Fits Into the Just Dance Series

Because Ubisoft has not published an official statement numbering this entry, fans looking for its place in the series rely on third-party documentation. According to Wikipedia's entry on the game, it is the eighteenth installment in the Just Dance series and the fifth annual song pack for the Just Dance service that began with Just Dance 2023 Edition. That framing — a song pack within an ongoing service rather than a numbered yearly sequel — is a third-party description, not an official one.

What is officially stated is that the game continues the series' established play patterns: dancing to on-screen choreography, using a smartphone as a controller, and playing locally with up to six people. Ubisoft also confirmed that owners of Just Dance: Decades of Hits plus the 2023–2026 editions can access all their songs in one place on the same console, including purchased Music Packs and songs available through an active Just Dance+ subscription.

The Decades Theme as the Focus

The most substantive difference from a typical yearly edition is structural. Ubisoft's page states that, for the first time in Just Dance, the entire experience is built around one theme, moving from 1970s disco through to 2020s hits via songs, visuals and themed worlds.

• Tracklist: Ubisoft's announcement lists 35 songs, including "Mamma Mia" by ABBA, "It's Tricky" by Run-DMC, "Wannabe" by Spice Girls, "Bye Bye Bye" by *NSYNC, "Turn Down for What" by DJ Snake and Lil Jon, and "NUEVAYoL" by Bad Bunny.
• Adventure Mode: a story-driven mode in which players join Lyra across six decade-themed worlds, with mini-activities and unlockable rewards, on a quest involving Dr. Gigavolt.
• Modes: Party Mode, which changes the rules each round, and Workout Mode, which tracks calories burned.

What's Confirmed and What Isn't

Confirmed by Ubisoft: the title, the release dates and platforms, the 35-song figure, Adventure Mode, the six-player local play, and the song carry-over from the 2023–2026 editions. Nintendo's store page for the Switch version lists an ESRB rating of Mild Lyrics, Users Interact and In-Game Purchases, and Nintendo's own news post for the release listed a regular price of $39.99 — that pricing comes from Nintendo, not from Ubisoft's materials summarised here.

Not officially documented: any product called Just Dance 2027, and any official statement that Decades of Hits should be understood as that year's numbered edition. If you see the two names used as synonyms, it is a community shorthand for "the 2026 release in the annual Just Dance cycle" — reasonable as a description, but not an official title.
