“Just Dance: Party,” a motion-sensing music and dance mobile game officially licensed by Ubisoft’s IP and published and operated by Tencent, announced at the SPARK 2026 Tencent Games Conference that it will officially launch on July 2. “Just Dance: Party” carries forward the classic DNA of the globally popular “Just Dance” series. As Tencent’s first motion-sensing music and dance mobile game, and a pioneer in this rare genre within the Chinese market, the game requires only a smartphone. Leveraging innovative AI-based motion-sensing recognition technology, it enables full-body motion capture, allowing players to experience the pure joy of dancing.

“Letting dance return to simplicity and joy” is the core philosophy that *Just Dance: Party* has always adhered to. The game encourages players to express themselves freely, replacing strict scoring criteria and professional techniques with the mantra, “Dance however you want”—as long as you keep moving, you win. This “simplicity + joy” design approach sets it distinctly apart from hardcore rhythm games that demand precise inputs and traditional fitness routines that emphasize standardized training.


With just a smartphone and approximately two square meters of space, no additional equipment is required. Whether at home, in a dormitory, or in a small outdoor area, you can start a fun party for yourself or with friends anytime.


Let happiness return to its purest form; make exercise accessible to all.


Traditional fitness has long faced three major barriers: boredom, difficulty in maintaining consistency, and the need for equipment. *Just Dance: Party* leverages the inherent appeal of gaming to lower the psychological threshold for exercise and fitness, systematically addressing these pain points.


The game features a built-in library of globally popular songs, spanning diverse styles such as pop hits, K-pop dance tracks, and retro classics, with every song delivering a fresh rhythmic experience. The social party mode shifts exercise behavior from relying on individual “self-discipline” to “peer-regulated and co-regulated” dynamics among partners, transforming dancing into interactive entertainment between friends and making it easier to maintain an active lifestyle. You can start dancing with just a smartphone, completely liberating motion-based fitness scenarios from fixed living-room equipment.

"Just Dance: Party" also provides real-time fat-burning data, with visualized presentations helping players intuitively perceive the effects of their exercise; playing continuously for 30 minutes can burn approximately 200 kilocalories. This design aligns with the directions advocated by the national three-year action plan for "Weight Management Year" and the "Healthy China 2030" Planning Outline, offering a lightweight approach to nationwide fitness through digital entertainment.


Lowering the Barrier to Exercise Through Gamified Fun, Earns Authoritative Recognition from National-Level Media


“Just Dance: Party” has received authoritative recognition from national-level media for its health benefits. Xinhua News Agency’s official WeChat video account featured the game, showcasing it as an “ultra-portable fitness tool” at the “Healthy Weight, Act Together” event in Beijing. The report specifically highlighted that the game allows users to start dancing with just a smartphone, and its calorie-burn visualization feature helps users intuitively track their workout effectiveness.

In addition, Just Dance: Party was featured as a representative “digital sports” title at the Sports Services Special Exhibition of the 2025 China International Fair for Trade in Services (CIFTIS). Attendees who tried out the game on-site commented, “It’s not only highly entertaining but also subtly encourages physical activity, making it a ‘game that gets you fit.’”


From being commended by Xinhua News Agency to exhibiting at the China International Fair for Trade in Services, “Just Dance: Party” has expanded the boundaries of traditional sports in a unique way, demonstrating the application potential of digital technology in promoting national fitness.
