Source-derived summary

Just Dance: Summer Party (known as Just Dance 2: Extra Songs in Australia and Europe) is a limited edition dance rhythm game developed by Ubisoft Paris and published by Ubisoft. It features all of the DLC and Best Buy exclusive songs from Just Dance 2 (except for "It's Not Unusual", "Crazy Christmas", "Spice Up Your Life", "Come on Eileen", and "Should I Stay or Should I Go") on a single disc, with that said title used as its basis. It was released in North America, Europe, and Australia in July 2011.

Gameplay

Like Just Dance and Just Dance 2, up to four players can play to mirror on-screen dance choreography from over 20 songs, as they are judged on their ability to follow a dance routine to a chosen song. The different modes are all as the same as Just Dance 2, the "Classic", "Duets", "Simon Says", "Race", "Non-Stop Shuffle", and "Just Sweat". Along the game's track list are the DLC, and Best Buy exclusives from Just Dance 2, except "It's Not Unusual", "Crazy Christmas", "Spice Up Your Life", "Come on Eileen", and "Should I Stay or Should I Go". However all of them were planned to be in the game.

Track list

The game features 23 songs, all from the downloadable content and Best Buy exclusives of Just Dance 2, except the aforementioned songs.

Editorial summary

Begin with the source’s own compact description: “Just Dance: Summer Party” is 2011 video game. The dossier treats that line as a proposition to test through Just, Dance and Summer, not as a finished interpretation.

Editorial reviewA dependable orientation record for establishing vocabulary, names and a first evidence trail. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—2011—that can be checked directly. The authority record carries competing date values—2011-07-19, 2011-07-21—which should remain separate until their references and qualifiers are resolved. For this dossier, Just, Dance and Summer is the immediate research focus.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “2011 video game” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jan 24, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q5492363. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 2 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2011.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
