LONDON, UK — 23RD OCTOBER, 2024 — Today, Ubisoft unveils more details about the ADHD-themed Just Dance 2025 Edition map with a new behind-the-scenes video. This initiative aims to raise awareness and provide a positive representation of ADHD, during ADHD Awareness month.
 
The map features 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.
 
Since its beginning, Just Dance has offered a fun and welcoming environment for everyone. The "BANG BANG! (My Neurodivergent Anthem)" map allows Just Dance 2025 Edition to offer a valuable resource for those in the ADHD community.
 
The map has been thoughtfully crafted to address this topic in a positive and uplifting manner, including a vibrant background, an engaging coach, and dynamic choreography:
 
“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!”  
 
Join the Just Dance community in celebrating neurodiversity and enjoy a unique dance experience that fosters understanding and positivity around ADHD.
