Just Dance Unlimited is an additional service for the main Just Dance series. It allows users who own it access to more songs to play in their games.
Summary[]
The Just Dance Unlimited service is a subscription based contract. Once subscribed, the player can dance to over 550 songs from past games in the series, along with songs that are new to the series. The service also includes songs outside of the series, namely songs from the Kids series and songs from the spin-off title ABBA: You Can Dance.
The player can either redeem the service through a code
After clicking on the service, the player will be given the option to pay for the service by a code or through a subscription
or by paying for it. The prices listed are in American dollars, but they vary by country and/or retailer:
| Time Period | Price |
|---|---|
| 24 Hours | $3.99 |
| 1 Month | $4.99 |
| 3 Months | $9.99 |
| 1 Year | $29.99 |
Songs from the service work the same as the ones in the main games: they are turned into autodances once they end, they can be used as songs to send in for others to compete on the World Video Challenge if available, and they can be put into playlists. They are also compatible with the Just Dance Controller. The one thing that separates them is that they are streamed in real time. This is different from the ones in the main games which are pre-programmed. Though not all games with the service support it, difficulty and effort ratings for content are applied in the service.
The service is available for the following platforms and games:
| Platform | Games |
|---|---|
| Google Stadia | 2020-2021 |
| Nintendo Switch | 2017-2021 |
| PC | 2017 |
| PlayStation 4 | 2016-2021 |
| PlayStation 5 | 2021 |
| Wii U | 2016-2021 |
| Xbox One | 2016-2021 |
| Xbox Series X | 2021 |
In Just Dance 2018 and Just Dance 2019, regardless if the player is subscribed, the service cannot be accessed until three (two in 2019) songs from the main tracklist are played. Afterwards, it become available and it gives/adds a 90 day trial to access them.
The player cannot choose certain songs they desire from the service; they come in one big package.
Gold Edition[]

If the player does not buy the Gold Edition of those two games, the player still receives a code that unlocks the Unlimited service for two days in the NTSC region and three months for the PAL region.
