Just Dance 2025 raises awareness of ADHD with new map

Take a behind-the-scenes look at it below.

Just Dance 2025 will feature an in-game map that aims to raise awareness of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD.

“This initiative aims to raise awareness and provide a positive representation of ADHD, during ADHD Awareness month,” Ubisoft said in a press release complete with a behind-the-scenes video of the map’s creation.

Tied to the map is the song “BANG BANG! (My Neurodivergent Anthem)” by Galantis.

“The original idea from the song comes from Christian Karlson, a member of the music group, who identifies as part of the ADHD community and was keen on using music to describe it,” Ubisoft continued.

“This Just Dance map is a perfect way to challenge the stereotype and bring upfront what Just Dance always did,” said Pierre Escaich, Neurodiversity Talent Program Director at Ubisoft. “To celebrate everyone in all their singularity inviting for connecting with each other through dance!”

Just Dance 2025 is available on Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS5, and Switch. ADHD Awareness Month has taken place all throughout October.
