What exercise-focused gameplay mode was added in Just Dance 2?

Just Dance 2 added the exercise-focused gameplay mode Just Sweat.

Just Sweat was designed to turn the dance game into a repeatable workout experience rather than a series of isolated songs. Players selected an intensity-based sequence of tracks, then danced continuously while the game tracked progress with “sweat points.” The mode was intended as a daily exercise regimen and supported the game’s broader appeal as accessible exergaming.

Just Dance 2 was developed by Ubisoft Paris and released exclusively for the Wii in October 2010. It expanded the original game with several other modes, including cooperative Duet routines, team-based Dance Battle, and Non-Stop Shuffle. Just Sweat was the mode specifically built around exercise, making it distinct from the game’s party and competitive features.

Players sometimes confuse Just Sweat with the series’ regular dance play because both involve following on-screen choreography. The difference is the structure: ordinary play focuses primarily on completing a selected routine and earning a score, while Just Sweat organizes songs around workout intensity and cumulative activity.
