What about Nintendo Switch Lite?
Nintendo cautions that compatibility and play experience may differ on Switch Lite. Before purchasing, check the local product listing and confirm that the intended control setup works for you. Nintendo’s Switch product listing is a useful place to check, though the listing available to you may depend on your region.
Do you need a phone to play?
No. The console runs the game. If you want to use a phone to track your dance moves, Ubisoft’s Just Dance Controller app provides companion controls; PlayStation also describes app-based movement tracking for its version. Ubisoft says Camera Controller mode is currently single-player only. See the Ubisoft 2026 Edition page and the PlayStation Store listing for the control details they publish.
Rank #2
- Brand video game Ubisoft.

Which console should you choose?
If you already own one of the supported consoles, that is the simplest choice: the official platform information does not establish a universal performance advantage for any one system. If portability matters, the Switch family offers Joy-Con controls, and the phone app is another companion-control option. For Switch Lite, verify compatibility and the intended control method against Nintendo’s local listing before purchasing.

What about PS4, Xbox One, Wii, or Wii U?
The official sources for the 2026 edition name Switch, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S; they do not establish support for PS4, Xbox One, Wii, or Wii U. Do not assume that an older console’s past support for a Just Dance game carries over to this edition. If you own older hardware, look up the exact edition you plan to buy and confirm its platform listing.

Do online features require a subscription?

Those requirements apply to the online features described in the PlayStation Store listing; they should not be read as a blanket requirement for every mode.
