Just Dance 2015

As in previous installments, players must mimic the routine of an on-screen dancer to a chosen song, scoring points based on their accuracy. As with the spin-off Just Dance Now, Just Dance 2015 on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One allows a smartphone to be used as a controller with a companion app, as an alternative to requiring a console's own motion control accessories. Motions are detected through the phone using its internal sensors. The Chinese version features a unique tweak to the traditional karaoke-styled lyrics, in which has a glowing circle that's pulsing to the beat and is next to the highlighted lyrics. Furthermore, online features are removed in the Chinese version, except for the "Challengers" feature, which only allows competing against high scores and AI players.

A new "challenge" feature allows players to send and receive challenges to and from other players as ghost data. The new "Just Dance Wall" feature allows players to view news and updates, including received challenges. The online "World Dance Floor" mode introduced in Just Dance 2014 returned with new features, including 8 player parties for the Wii version (The Wii U, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, and PS4 versions of Just Dance 2014 only have 8 player parties), and VIPs (which is also available outside of the "World Dance Floor" mode, as the same style as "Community Remixes" in the main game mode, while the Wii version doesn't featured a pre-recorded video in the "World Dance Floor" mode), along with the "AutoDance" video creator (with the effects option not available in the Wii U version, just like in the previous game, Just Dance 2014), while Just Sweat was dropped in favor of an optional k/cal tracker, and the return of the "Non-Stop Shuffle" feature in the playlists menu. Also, difficulty ratings have been removed.

Just Dance 2015 received mixed-to-positive reviews by critics; Metacritic lists the Xbox One version of the game with an aggregate score of 70 out of 100 based on 17 critic reviews, the PlayStation 4 version of the game with an aggregate score of 72 out of 100 based on 8 critic reviews, and the Wii U version of the game with an aggregate score of 75 out of 100 based on 6 critic reviews.

Zack Stein of IGN gave the Xbox One version of Just Dance 2015 an 8.0 out of 10; describing the game as "a welcome, surprising reinvigoration of the series", Stein praised the game for continuing to provide an overall experience catered to a casual audience, jump-in multiplayer, along with improved Kinect motion tracking in-game, and the higher-quality production of the per-song background videos, but criticized the user interface for being "as confusing and frustrating as ever" due to irregular design choices and behaviors. In conclusion, Stein felt that "It would be easy to dismiss Just Dance 2015 as the 'same-old-same-old,' but that would overlook this finely tuned party game's special-effects-laden dance numbers, complete with chorus lines and elaborate sets and costumes, and the social integration that holds the world-wide Just Dance community together."
