Just Dance continues to define how successful a surprise smash can be – and Ubisoft is already working on its next toe-tapping best-seller.
Dance on Broadway will arrive on Wii on June 25th.
The game will offer Just Dance fans a more theatrical take on music games.
Although not a direct sequel, the game is sure to benefit from the high profile of its counterpart.

It’s also the fastest-selling new IP from any third-party publisher on Wii.
We’re delighted with the game’s continued success. With UK sales now approaching 1m units it truly has been a phenomenon,” commented Mark Slaughter, group
brand manager.
Ubisoft’s UK marketing director Murray Pannell added: Just Dance has completely reversed the traditional sales trend. I’m delighted for the development studio and
I think it’s important to thank Nintendo for its support to keep the game at No.1.”
