Just Dance 2

is a dance game developed and published by Ubisoft. It is the second installment in the series. The game was released on October 12, 2010 in the NTSC region, October 14, 2010 in the PAL region, and December 8, 2011 in South Korea for the Wii. A PlayStation 3 port was planned but was ultimately scrapped.
==Gameplay==
The objectives of the game are preserved from the previous installment, with players mimicking the dance moves of on-screen dancers for a score. In addition to these basic mechanics, there are three new gameplay modes, including "Just Dance Mode" where players can get together and dance for an unlimited duration; "Non-Stop Shuffle" where the gameplay is non-stop; and "Medleys" which include 5 short pieces of different songs which are mixed together.
Other new features include Duets, which allow for players on the same console to dance together; the "Dance Battle Mode", which is a team mode that supports up to 8 players; and "Just Sweat", an exercise-focused mode which sets objectives based around completing dance sessions.

==ESRB Ratings==
Resources can be found here
Category: 
*Platforms: Wii
*Content Descriptors: Lyrics, Mild Suggestive Themes
*Others: Music Downloads and/or Streams Not Rated by the ESRB (Wii)
Rating Summary: This is a dancing simulation game in which players perform and learn dance steps by following the movements of on-screen characters—dancers resemble silkscreen-negative silhouettes. Some of the dance moves are somewhat suggestive: touching oneself/rubbing hands on body; shaking buttocks, etc. Song lyrics include phrases such as "touch my body with the proper care," "drinkin' and lusting," and "sleep around, if we like." The word "hell" also appears in some lyrics.
