Just Dance 2016 opens up the dance floor to millions of players who will now be able to utilize their smartphone as the controller.
The free Just Dance Controller App enables players on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Wii U to use their Apple, Android or Windows Phone devices** to play the game, without any peripherals or added console cameras, and also lets players navigate through the game via the phone itself.
