Just Dance: Decades of Hits platforms at a glance

Just Dance: Decades of Hits is available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S from October 13, 2026. A Nintendo Switch 2 version follows on November 10, 2026. The official launch announcement lists no confirmed PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, mobile, or cloud version. (Ubisoft launch announcement)

The launch information above reflects the publisher’s announcements available on October 14, 2026. Ubisoft’s newsroom also states that the Nintendo Switch 2 version is available as a free upgrade for Nintendo Switch players. (Ubisoft newsroom announcement)

Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2

The original Nintendo Switch version launched on October 13, 2026. Nintendo Switch 2 receives its version later, on November 10, 2026, rather than sharing the same launch date as the other confirmed platforms.

According to Ubisoft’s launch information, Nintendo Switch owners receive the Switch 2 version as a free upgrade. The supplied announcement does not establish whether every edition feature, save detail, or accessory behavior works identically between the two Nintendo platforms, so those specifics should be checked against the platform store listing or later Ubisoft support information.

The publisher’s game page presents the collection as a party-focused experience for up to six local players. It also says that players can use a smartphone as a controller, while Ubisoft’s launch material notes that the free Just Dance Controller app is required for smartphone-based movement tracking.

PlayStation 5

PlayStation 5 is one of the three platforms available at the October 13 launch. The available official material does not list a PlayStation 4 release, so the PS5 version should not be treated as backward-compatible with an older PlayStation edition without confirmation from the PlayStation Store or Ubisoft.

Ubisoft’s launch information says that the Just Dance Controller app is used for movement capture on PlayStation. The announcement does not provide every pairing step or explain whether all supported controller options work in every mode. For practical setup instructions, use the current in-game prompts and official platform support information rather than relying on procedures from earlier Just Dance games.

Xbox Series X|S

Xbox Series X|S is also confirmed for the October 13 launch. The supplied official announcements do not identify an Xbox One version.

As with PlayStation, Ubisoft identifies the Just Dance Controller app as the smartphone-based movement-tracking method on Xbox. The available sources do not establish detailed controller-pairing behavior, accessory compatibility, or whether the game has a separate optimized version for Xbox Series X versus Xbox Series S.

What is not confirmed

Based on the official platform announcements available for this guide, the following versions are not confirmed:

• PlayStation 4
• Xbox One
• PC
• iOS or Android as a standalone game
• A browser version
• A cloud-only edition

The Just Dance Controller app should not be confused with a mobile version of the game. It is described as a smartphone controller application used with the supported console versions. Ubisoft’s stated requirements include a compatible smartphone, the free app, and supported operating-system versions; the reviewed sources lists iOS 14.4 or later and Android 9 or later for the app. (Ubisoft newsroom announcement)

Cross-edition song access

Ubisoft says owners of Just Dance: Decades of Hits who also have a Just Dance 2023, 2024, 2025, or 2026 Edition can access songs from those games in one place on the same console. The announcement also includes purchased Music Packs and songs available through an active Just Dance+ subscription. (Ubisoft newsroom announcement)

This access description does not mean that every song from another edition is included in the base purchase of Decades of Hits. It distinguishes between:

• Base-game content: the songs included with Just Dance: Decades of Hits.
• Earlier purchased editions: songs from supported Just Dance editions owned by the player.
• Music Packs: separately purchased content.
• Just Dance+: a subscription service that provides additional songs while the subscription and required account access remain active.

Ubisoft states that Just Dance+ requires an internet connection, a Ubisoft account, and payment or an ongoing subscription fee. Availability and any additional platform-subscription requirements can vary by country and platform store. (Ubisoft newsroom announcement)

Platform features shared across the game

The official game page describes Decades of Hits as a console party game built around music from the 1970s through the 2020s. Across the confirmed platforms, the advertised experience includes:

• Local dancing for up to six players
• Party Mode with changing rules
• Workout Mode with calorie tracking
• Smartphone controller support
• Adventure Mode with six decade-inspired worlds
• Customizable Multiple Dancer Cards

These feature descriptions come from Ubisoft’s promotional material. They do not establish that every option uses the same controls or interface on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2. The available evidence also does not provide platform-specific performance targets, resolution information, or loading-time comparisons.

Choosing a platform

Choose Nintendo Switch if you want the initial Nintendo release and access to the later Switch 2 upgrade path described by Ubisoft.

Choose Nintendo Switch 2 if you are buying after November 10, 2026 and want the version specifically released for that system.

Choose PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X|S if you already play on one of those current-generation consoles and want the game on that platform. The official sources do not establish that one console has a larger song list, exclusive routines, or different Adventure Mode content.
