The publisher claims the Just Dance series has now sold over 10 million units worldwide and was the third biggest franchise in the world during 2010.
"The Just Dance franchise has revitalised the videogame music category with consumers worldwide joining the dance movement, said Geoffroy Sardin, chief EMEA sales and marketing officer at Ubisoft.
"Players of all ages are enjoying the social and physical benefits of playing Just Dance 2 as it's truly a game that is accessible and enjoyable for everyone,"
