Ready Player Me Avatars Take Center Stage in Ubisoft’s Just Dance VR: Welcome to Dancity

The future of dance is here, and we’re thrilled to be a part of it! In collaboration with Ubisoft and Soul Assembly, Ready Player Me avatars are stepping into the virtual dance floor in the all-new Just Dance VR: Welcome to Dancity, available now on Meta Quest headsets.

A First-of-its-Kind Collaboration

Ubisoft has long been known for its innovation in gaming, and with Soul Assembly’s expertise in VR, Just Dance VR is the ultimate collaboration. In this new installment of the iconic Just Dance series, players aren’t just dancing—they’re stepping into a vibrant, interactive virtual world with avatars that feel more real than ever. With Ready Player Me integration, players can fully customize their avatars, adding personal style and flair to each dance session. The result? A deeply personalized experience that brings every player’s individuality to the forefront.

Enter Dancity: A Social Hub Unlike Any Other

At the heart of Just Dance VR is Dancity, a bustling, colorful social hub where players can meet up, chat, and select their next dance map. Imagine a futuristic city designed for dancers and music lovers—Dancity is where you’ll find everything you need to start your dance journey. From the Danceverses to the Freestyle Zone, Dancity gives players a place to connect, express themselves, and explore the endless possibilities of VR dance.

Thanks to Ubisoft’s creative vision and Soul Assembly’s technical expertise, Ready Player Me avatars look and feel right at home in this vibrant digital city. Whether you’re choosing a song from a billboard or hanging out with friends, Dancity brings a whole new level of interaction that’s engaging and exciting.

The Danceverses: Bringing Immersive VR to the Dance Floor

Just Dance VR features several unique Danceverses—360° immersive spaces, each with its own song, backdrop, and atmosphere. Our avatars take full advantage of this environment, capturing every nuance of movement and expression. Dance to hits like Katy Perry’s “Dark Horse” and feel the rhythm in environments designed to amplify each beat.

In addition to the full-body avatar experience, the game also offers a new dual-controller scoring system, adding extra depth and precision to every move. Visual effects like hand trails and haptic feedback help bring every move to life, adding a sense of realism and depth to the experience. With these improvements, Ready Player Me avatars stand out, making each Danceverse feel uniquely engaging.

The Apartment: A Social Experience Beyond Dancing

Beyond the Danceverses, Just Dance VR offers The Apartment, a shared social space where players can hang out, shoot hoops, and dance with friends. The Apartment provides a space for up to six players to connect, challenge each other, and explore Dancity together. With Ready Player Me’s personal avatars, players can dance and showcase their style in every corner of this immersive social hub.

And the fun doesn’t stop there—the Apartment is home to various activities beyond dancing, like the ball pit and hoop challenges, creating a well-rounded social experience. Ubisoft and Soul Assembly have crafted an environment where players can relax, compete, and celebrate their avatars’ unique looks.

Ready Player Me Full-body XR Avatars: Taking VR Experiences to the Next Level

We’ve worked hard to bring our most advanced avatars to Just Dance VR with our Full-body XR avatars. These new avatars are optimized for VR applications, delivering a realistic full-body presence that translates every move accurately. With improved tracking and motion detail, players’ avatars feel lifelike, responding naturally to every step, turn, and gesture. This is part of our ongoing effort to make avatars more expressive and versatile across VR platforms, and Just Dance VR provides the perfect stage to showcase these advancements.
