for your Cygnus theory, respectfully, no when the Showdown season came out, the JD team put out lore videos and descriptions for every coach, and Cygnus's says this *ahem* "Cygnus is from Eternyx, the darkest Danceverse born from the shadow of The Flow. He's a crazy inventor, and the architect behind Night Swan's city. He impressed her with his time-space Clock Tower trap, and began working with her. He comes to the Showdown to make up for his wrongdoings, and show that he has feelings. He wants to send a message to his loved one - He's beggin' to see her again..."

Sara could potentially become a Swan herself, and gain powers to combat Night Swan. Surely whatever gave Night Swan her powers post fall from grace it can be gained for our hero.

[@Ranger12_]

I have a theory about Dance with the Swan. What if, Treasure happened WHILE Swan Lake was happening? Because Jack is in the same position (and has the same facial expression) when Treasure ends and when he receives the SOS. Then as Tainted Love is going on he’s running to save them, but is too late? (I dunno, just a goofy theory but maybe..)

[@gracekincade8775]

In my opinion, I don’t think that Jack Rose has narcissism. Night Swan knows that her son has a passion for dancing and becoming a beloved performer, but she knows very little about how he wants his dream to actually be achieved. Back in Locked Out of Heaven, if you notice the crowd he is performing to is full of different fans, not versions of himself like in Treasure. Jack wants to be a successful and adored performer, but not at the cost of being alone. There’s an old saying: “Success means nothing if you don’t have no one to share it with.”

[@chloejoyhenry3137]

I imagine that when he met the Just Dancers (Sara, Wanderlust, Brezziana and Mihaly), they helped him heal from all the trauma Night Swan gave him and they helped him become a better person. I also imagine that at some point or another, he sees the Just Dancers as his found family.

[@shark_bby]

I noticed something related to Night Swan, Sara and Jack, although I don't know if I'm looking to deep into it. But Night Swan does ballet which is known for being elegant and perfect, while Sara has party dances (being the complete opposite of ballet) and in IYWP Jack Raps, which is something considered as vulgar, once again the opposite of ballet. And ironically enough those two have the closest relationship with Night Swan

[@chloejoyhenry3137]

Oh! What if Jack and Sara are siblings? Maybe shortly after both of them were born, their dad tried to take both Jack and Sara to the real world. However after some big magic fight, only he and Sara were able to escape to the real world. I know this sounds crazy but still.

Oh im so shocked that deities cant partake in this, I was really hoping Si'ha Nova and the Traveler would be part of the story next game! Regardless I feel like somehow their story isn't over yet ether, because the last reward for the y2k season (in the trailer) is an avatar of the traveler and so far the last rewards have been mostly lore relevant! Its funny because Night swan plays on their weaknesses, but if you think about it their weaknesses can be their strengths. Sara's readiness, Wanderlust entrusting, brezzianas ability to help others, Mihaly's ability to perfect their craft, and Jack Rose's ability to use his platform. Its amazing because the very thing that took Night Swan down took Mihaly down as well. Theyre two sides of the same coin, yet good vs bad. These characters are so in depth i love it!

my theory is that the beggin coach (idk how to spell his name) is actually jack rose’s father who left after figuring out night swans plan and that the coach for sacrifice is truly jack roses sibling.

I don’t think Cygnus is the second child, but my intrigue is peaked. Since Jack’s gonna need help, I think he might get his sibling and (hopefully) Wanderlust’s parents. Although I don’t know how.

[@alexneilzevallosbarrientos3002]

Maybe Jack would seek help from his sibling. Maybe Jack gets more attention of his mother because she sees more of herself in him, while the other child might have more charateristics from the father. Now here's my theory. The Traveler, Night Swan and Wonderlust are the only ones we confirmed can travel through the Danceverses. What if Jack Rose despite having similar powers to her mom, didn't inherit that ability but his sibling did.

[@sarahcrowley7555]

The story just keeps getting more crazy and intriguing!!! Also, I still wanna know if time in the real world stops when Sara enters the Danceverse or if she just casually dissappears infront of everyone.😂😂

[@SteloSuprnova]

"No ones perfect, but mom says we're not trying hard enough" She's talking about We: Jack and Night Swan. The reason why NS became dark in the first place was because she was a failed ballet dancer who was told she wasn't perfect. Now she wants to enslave coaches and make them her perfect dancers (Hence, why we say "they serve") But he could be talking about Cygnus, which could be JR's brother or father. I think it would make sense for Cygnus to build a whole city for his wife rather than build a whole city for his mom but either works. As for the 8:44 riddle, NS and Sara are the only ones associated with feathers (Not counting JR bcz he's probably forced to have that trait from his mom). Night Wanderlust looks like a sailor, Night Mihaly looks like a panda, Night Brezziana.... is a boxer because she fights dark energy? NS and Sara might both have swan-like traits such as self, balance, grace, inner beauty, innocence, or self-esteem.

[@Tina-pl7qi]

I honestly think the similarities with Sara and nightswan is that they both used to be bad at dancing, they told us that NS had dreams of becoming a ballerina that were shattered and at the begging of JD2023 Sara is shy and in a corner of the couch, so maybe the parallels between the both is that they had insecurities with dancing but one fained more skills through evil and resignation and the other with patience and hope

[@SageoftheFairyMound]

I noticed that each main character aside from Sara represents a different reason for dancing: Wanderlust - partying/fun Jack Rose - fame Mihaly - meditation Brezziana - fitness I also find it really interesting that Night Swan's dance style is ballet, something very focused with perfection, just like she is Maybe Night Swan is an allegory for that feeling we sometimes get that we have to be perfect at our skills, forgetting our passion for it or doing it for fun

[@JoeNayDoh]

Just be glad that the Night Swan's ship isn't the same ship Captain Crimson burned down in "Sail". That would have been a very dark ending.

[@vich4710]

Girl When you mentioned jack and wander and the word past I personally have this theory that the Traveler is Jack's father, having conceived him from an affair with Night Swan, based on many factors, one of them being that Jack has similar mirror manipulation powers to the Traveler and Wanderlust, but is heavily implied to have the Traveler's self-cloning ability, which Wanderlust doesn't seem to possess. if Wanderlust did have power, he wouldn't have gone out of his way to recruit others to help him. This would explain why Wanderlust is so much weaker than his father, because the Traveler actually has two sons with different women and his power was split between them. Nightswan showed jack his ability he wasnt aware about .

[@żremkwiatki]

Yes I'm writing this comment after the May event came out. We know the thing Sara and Night Swan have in common. (spoilers to Murder on the dance floor) They're both from earth! Murder on the dance floor even gives vibes of Can't stop the feeling. Mystery solved!

[@griefingg0lem685]

I'm honestly going to counter point with who I believe to be the sibling of Jack Rose. While Cygnus is a resident, it isn't possible as he made the city that he named after himself called Cygnus. We get to see Cygnus in one other dance, "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)" who has Leda Nox as the lead dancer. Leda Nox is a younger Night Swan, so it would be impossible for her to be in a city her young child made before she became a sorceress. I think that Cygnus is the father instead, passing down some of his moves to his son. Instead, I propose Phoenix as the missing sibling, the dancer of "all good girls go to hell". Not only does her style fit generally to Night Swan, but she has a bird motif like Swan and Jack Rose, so it fits there. The Chaos Mountains, where the song takes place, also is in Eternyx, and it would make sense as the song used to turn Sarah into Night Sarah was a Billie Eilish song, kinda like "all good girls go to hell". I think she might be a bit more, and ran away to be her own person away from her crazy mom.

[@biabarreto1434]

I have been looking forward to this video ever since you announced it, and BOY do I have some thoughts. This is about to be a LONG comment so I hope you have enough time to read it all until the end. First of all, one thing you neglected to mention was when Night Swan took over Just Dance's social media accounts on the week the previews for the story maps were being released. On the teaser tweet for Treasure, she stated that she "[knows Jack's] power", implying Jack actually has that self-duplication ability in real life. And when someone asked her if he was single, she replied that it wasn't of their concern because Jack is "the son of royalty". Note the phrasing there, she didn't say "prince", she said "son of royalty", implying neither her nor Jack are actually of royal blood, but that Jack's father is a royal by marriage. The "we" in the caption for the little Jack avatar also seems to hint at him being capable of cloning himself IRL; his clones seem to be produced from his reflections in the full-length mirrors around him, and if the original Jack isn't "trying hard enough" to be perfect, neither are the others. Now who do we know who, 1. can clone himself, and 2. married into royalty? 😉 Yeah, sorry to burst your little Jacklust shipper bubble, but my theory is that Jack and Wanderlust are actually half-brothers. I think the Traveler had an affair with the woman who would go on to become Night Swan, and that was what initially made him and Si'ha Nova drift apart, explaining why he's so desperately looking for her when we meet him, and why their reunion map is set to Save Your Tears, which has lyrics that go "I couldn't help it, I put you through Hell", "I don't know why I run away/I make you cry when I run away" and "take me back 'cause I wanna stay". It would also explain why the Traveler, Wanderlust, and Jack all seem to have some kind of mirror manipulation magic (as seen with Discoball's tiles and Jack's mirrors, both of which seem to act more as LED screens than as actual mirrors), why Wanderlust seems to be less powerful than his father and can't clone himself while Jack can (because the Traveler's magic was split in half between the two-let's be real, if Wanderlust could do that, he wouldn't be going around recruiting people, not to mention Jack and the Traveler both seem to have this kind of lone wolf/"I can do it myself" attitude), why Wanderlust and Jack's designs seem to mirror each other with Wanderlust's capelet and Jack's feather shoulder piece, and why Jack is so hostile to Wanderlust when they first meet (the guy is basically the product of Jack's dad abandoning his mom to be with another woman, OF COURSE Jack would be pissed about it). On that topic, another big factor that plays into this is the real-life parallels when it comes to the artists. The Traveler's song, Rock Your Body, was originally intended for Michael Jackson, and both Justin Timberlake and Bruno Mars are seen as "heirs" to MJ's artistic legacy, with JT being considered the "official heir", not just through Rock Your Body but also through recording a posthumous duet with Michael via the reworking of the demo Love Never Felt So Good, present in the album Xscape. Bruno, meanwhile, has been at the center of a (since disproven) conspiracy theory surrounding him being not only a bastard son of Michael, but THE bastard child mentioned in his song Billie Jean. This same song was also the one chosen for Michael's iconic Motown 25th anniversary performance that featured the debut of Michael's signature bedazzled glove, which I believe may have inspired the gloves in Just Dance thanks to Michael Jackson: The Experience being developed alongside the first Just Dance game (it was originally slated for a Christmas 2009 release but was delayed). Worth noting is that two songs from Michael Jackson: The Experience, Billie Jean itself and Another Part of Me (from the short film Captain EO, which features Michael as a space traveler defeating an evil witch-queen through the power of music and dance-sounds familiar?), both feature a specific "infinity" hand whip movement in their choreography that is also featured in the Just Dance choreography for Rock Your Body. Back to Bruno, even if the theory surrounding him being Michael's bastard kid has been disproven (Michael has stated the song was inspired by his brothers' experiences in the Jackson 5), it's still gotten enough of an audience that many people have gone on record saying they still believe it, especially here in Brazil. So Justin being the "official" heir and Bruno being an "unofficial"/"bastard" heir = Wanderlust and Jack respectively. Racial coding also plays a big part in this theory. The Traveler clan seems to be coded as an affluent black family (even if the Traveler and Si'ha Nova are portrayed by white dancers), while Night Swan is very much coded as a white European (although ballet dancers can be of any ethnicity, ballet is most commonly associated with European countries like France, Russia and Germany). Jack, meanwhile, has both white and black cultural influences; the latter is most evident in the beta map for Lose Yourself by Eminem (where coincidentally Jack is styled in a way that vaguely resembles the Traveler, with a hood over a beanie and a golden chain draped in a way that resembles the Traveler's golden pendant). Going back to Majesty, Wasiu's rapping juxtaposed with the classical instrumentation and placed in that context could be interpreted as Jack's "voice" in that moment, as him reaffirming his biracial identity and stating that, even if he doesn't possess the royal blood of Si'ha Nova like Wanderlust does, he is still a son of the Traveler and therefore considers himself just as worthy of being called a "Danceverse Prince" like Wanderlust is. That was a lot, but I hope you understand where I'm coming from, and put all of this into consideration.

[@chloejoyhenry3137]

This is an awesome theory.

[@mickiejade6709]

Don't forget, the last we reward for the Disney season was kid Jack... And he last reward for Y2K is.. The Traveller! Yeah, what I am saying is that Wanderlust and Jack Rose are brothers/half brothers! That's my theory.

[@Lxvenderh3ze]

No but hear me out, what if the reason wanderlust and jack are so close is because either 1. Wanderlust is actually night swan’s second son but she was ashamed of him for some reason so she gave him to wanderlust’s parents. Or 2. They are cousins! Have you seem the similarity between them? The traveler or wanderlust’s mum (I forgot her name) are siblings with night swan and this big family secret was revealed when they were younger. But at the same time for the “we” it would make more sense if Jack and Wanderlust are siblings and wanderlust doesn’t know yet but Jack was told already.

[@littlesiha]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

[@DreamyAn-jh8rl]

I loved the video, I love the lore of Just Dance and a while ago I created a theory about Night Swan. According to my theory, Eternyx was not always a city of darkness but rather it was a beautiful and golden place as if it were heaven where ballet predominated and everything was elegant. Night Swan was the princess of Eternyx, daughter of the beloved Swan Queen and a demon-like deity. In the old Eternyx everyone was "perfect", with an angelic and beautiful appearance, but Night Swan was not like them, her hair was a beautiful red and her wings were fuchsia instead of white. Being different meant that no one on Eternyx respected her as the princess so when her mother died and she became queen, she took revenge on everyone who ever made fun of her for not being "perfect" enough. That's my theory of how Night Swan ended up like that and why Jack's hair is red :].

[@GoldBubbles01]

There’s a new update I guess you could call it and you see a glimpse into the past of nightswan. Spoiler warning btw if you haven’t danced to it already. You see wanderlust’s father and nightswan who pulls her into the just dance verse and she by the end gains the same powers as him (so they’re not related) in the second one she’s by herself. My theory is that something happens between them because clearly they’re not together anymore. So she tries to become a dancer and fails and the weight of her failure is too much for her that she loses it and eventually becomes what she is in the lore - a villain.

[@LitaliCat]

Imagine if in the storymode jack rose will contact the traveler since he is wonderlust's dad to open a portal to his mother's ship? I think they are hinting of the traveler's return from 2023 when they introduced wonderlust and in the 2024 he wore the traveler's cape as a sudden hint

[@dylanpetersen3732]

I think I have an idea for what the connection could be between Sara and Night Swan. In her lore, it states that she was a ballerina who got her dreams crushed, so, what is something similar happened to Sara? Also, if they add in any songs from Helluva Boss or Hazbin Hotel, I will cry because, it would be so cool to see songs like Poison, Insane, Smile like you mean it, or Cotton Candy in just dance. Would it not? Also I could see Night Swan's other child as being the coach for Boss Witch because she has similar hair to Jack Rose, and she seems like she has some magic powers of her own. Who knows?

[@clarka.8957]

I think that Jack Rose might recruit a new group of friends, to help save the just dancers from Night Swan who 💅serves💅. So maybe we will meet a new batch, and after their song has ended, a cutscene will have Jack Rose coming in to recruit them.

I’m only slightly unhinged about Mihaly lore but i kept thinking about Mihaly and Night Swans connection ever since the game was released and I’m glad it was confirmed here!! Mihaly craves perfection just like Night Swan, and they both have a strong connection to the Flow, its like they are two sides of the same coin, with the same fundamental goals and ‘power’ (flow) but different ultimate directions. (Also on a meta level both have very technical styles and on average harder choreographies) Also I always thought Mihaly is definitely a Melosian especially after seeing their room with some Melosian decor in it, which would somewhat explain an innate affinity for the Flow (see avatar called Child of the Flow) Which led me to a theory about Calypso being Mihaly’s mom because Tusa and Provenza both feature very similar floating crystals to what we see in Mihaly’s maps + temple. Crazy theory but I will cling to it until I’m proven wrong HAHAHA

[@reidalyn2328]

Did they discontinue this story? Because these characters didn’t return in just dance 2025.

[@J11P22]

Will never see them again I knew it I knew it 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

[@reckrillive]

fact that the background coaches in Stronger (what does it kill you) are or resembles the despacito coaches in Just Dance 2018

[@genevieve1832]

My conspiracy theory is that what Sara and Night Swan have in common is that they're both from the real world, not the Just Dance universe. Night Swan was a failed ballerina in the real world, but somehow got sucked into the Just Dance universe... and stayed.

[@genevieve1832]

OK I SWEAR I DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THE NEW CONTENT WHEN I POSTED THIS, I saw one of your lore videos yesterday and the idea of just dance Lore gripped me by the throat and I watched all of them last night and today and this just seemed to fit best with the given hint. But now youtube is reccing me just dance content and???? I guess stuff confirming this released today???? i'm dead

[@SmoothTH10]

Just want to say you are killing these makeup and cosplay looks for the lore week videos! AMAZING!

[@IzzyBM1]

Hi Avery! While watching your video, a theory that was kind of crazy, but would make a huge plot twist, came to my mind. The past link between Wanderlust and Jack Rose is: they are both children of the Traveler. In other words, they are BROTHERS. What do you think? Night Swan can travel between the Danceverses just like the Traveler and Si'ha Nova. What about?

[@Urfavblondegirllly]

"they're ga-great friends!"

[@LevyNeptune]

I really didn't care about JD lore before I started watching these videos. I binged all of the 2024 ones last night and can't wait for tomorrow's video.

[@Rhys-fb8mt]

Ah. So Siha Nova can’t help! Didn’t say anything about The Traveler

[@sunfastrose]

1. I agree, the Tainted Love cover is top tier. 2. I love the “evil” versions of their outfits, especially Wanderlust and Jack Rose. 3. I think Wanderlust and Jack Swan are hot, but those quotes break my heart.

[@akfc.6978]

8:44 The answer is that both Night Swan (neé Leda Nox) and Sara originated from Earth and were invited to the DanceVerse via a television by a male deity (The Traveler in Leda’s case, Wanderlust [the *son* of The Traveler] in Sara’s case). I wonder if Sara’s friends back in Earth are concerned about her being missing in the DanceVerses… And I REALLY hope this story will continue from the cliffhanger!

[@NoBonesAreHere]

I’m so excited for tomorrow! Can’t Tame Her lore!

[@ilovepomshipplay8990]

Funfact in the map of Treasure by Bruno Mars a Jack Rose map this map there is respect for the original in the MV for the song. Reference a video "5 MÚSICAS QUE FAZEM REFERÊNCIAS AOS SEUS CLIPES NO JUST DANCE 2024!" from the channel Cauã Rodrigo From Brazil

[@J11P22]

Night Sara:I used to be afraid but now I’ve got a new perspective I’ll be bold😈😈😈😈

[@FluffyTanooki]

Me and you should team up to make a gimme more video cuz i want one and I have some theories for it, Avery, if you see this, reply to it and we can make it happen.

[@Roxie_Wu]

My only question is who’s there dad

[@Lemon_Lime_Lily]

They gave wanderlust pants… that’s what happened

[@vich4710]

Lets be honest we're all glad that wander got a free makeover by swan cause that kid aint 27years old.

[@Katy_Lagos]

I can’t wait for you can’t tame her lore, seeing Avery in just dance makes me so happy!🎉🎉🎉

[@Mister_Dollz]

At this point in time, Ubisoft needs to make a Just Dance tv show, because the stories from the past two games alone, are mind boggling enough to be made into a show.

[@chloejoyhenry3137]

Or a movie.

[@reidalyn2328]

I was hoping for a full comic in the style of the mini comics they post on twitter

[@chloejoyhenry3137]

@@reidalyn2328 maybe it can be about the Just Dancers going on adventures (taking place between Enter The Danceverse and Dance With The Swan) or they could be about Agent D and her missions.

[@ShilohHildaInquisitorAvaFan]

Okay, now I know we came a long way from the original just dance.

[@miaheartss.116]

I just love the serve jokes in these videos 😭🦢🖤

[@mirarie3391]

idc i love our heros but they need to stay in their evil forms they look SO GOOD !! THEY SERVED !!!! can't wait to be blown away by can't tame her lore vid tomorrow🧡

[@Oiamh_TheWolf18]

OK coming back to this - we now have an answer to the connection between Jack and Wander. If you have done the night swan songs that came out for JD24, it's revealed Night Swan and the Traveller knew each other, whether or not they were dating before the traveller met Si'ha is unknown but yeah :3

[@leniluan5131]

I'm still holding out hope for Wander Rose after they did the Save Your Tears Move in Majesty, Jd2025 better have a shot of them running towards each other after defeating Night Swan and getting a lil steamy

[@jirahgreengiant7043]

I believe that Cygnus is jack roses(older) brother and night swans (eldest son); I heard that people have said that Cygnus was jack roses dad, but I didn't really think so(not making Offence to anyone who has Theroies on it) I've recently thought he they were brothers and if that's the case I fell like "their" father is captain crimson from sail. Please make a theory video on the swan family and who you think jack roses father is. Also; (Spoiler alert) Night swan was also supposed to have a map called sweet dreams(are made of this) and her name was nita. Also I think that like jack rose was named after a movie character.

[@Immortalized_Action]

My theory is that Night Swan made a mistake in turning Sara as Sara is now more powerful than her, Jack will save the just dancers from themselves (with help from either a sibling or night swan) in an epic dance battle similar to Majesty Also side note does anyone else struggle with the way dark Sara moves in swan lake?? I lose my concentration on the dance so quickly when she starts to dance

[@IncredibleWerekitty]

You just might be onto something! A baby swan is called a "cygnet", and the coach you think is Night Swan's other child is "Cygnis"!

[@dylanmajor100]

I do have a little theory that Jack and Wanderlust could be Cousins. This is because of the quotes between Little Jack’s and Wanderlust quotes. If it’s possible then that there’s a likely chance that Night Swan is Wanderlust’s Paternal Aunt. Any comments on those think it’s likely possible?

[@chloejoyhenry3137]

What if the Traveler had a brother (keyword: had) who used to be in a relationship with Night Swan? Maybe shortly after Jack was born, the Traveler's brother saw Night Swan's true colors and tried to leave and take Jack with him. Unfortunately, Night Swan either killed him (and is the person in the crypt with Mothigan) or she trapped him in the feather brooch/pendant that Jack wears.

[@LadyJuse]

I was mad at the fact they had the audacity to give a party game's story mode a cliffhanger, but then I realized they do have the fact sequels are guaranteed...

[@NightToRemember0804]

Only thing I didn't like about Wander Lust's Night form is the single Diamond over one of his eyes, it just feels.. off, like it was put there to try and give a more a-symetric look but it would have been better to do two diamonds..

[@SunnySide-xd9uh]

waiit.. never be like you is called that caus she'll never be like night swan! *GASP* OMG!!!

[@peter_m_tcg]

I want to add my own theory I suggested that The Just Dancers aren’t actually corrupted by Night Swan and are instead just playing along to get her to lower her guard and i want to explain that a bit. It mostly comes from the lyrics of Tainted Love, so here we go “Sometimes i feel i’ve got to run away” could show that they still have some semblance of free will, but not enough to act on it, as they want to run, but can’t “And i’ve lost my light” pretty straightforward, because they all turned into their dark personas “Once i ran to you, now i run from you” in 2023, they took the fight to Night Swan, hence running to her, but now, she took the fight to them, hence wanting to run away from her. “To make things right, you need someone to hold you tight, and you think love is to prey” an indirect diss towards night swan, as she has basically lost Jack Rose, so she’s trying to fill that void. Even under her control, Sara still won’t hold back hating on the swan. And finally “don’t touch me please, i cannot stand the way you tease” again, showing they still have some of their kindness in them and are repulsed at how Night Swan is treating them. One final note on this theory, i want to believe that the just dancers chose to sing tainted love as a way to indirectly diss Night Swan and her Tainted Love that she gives anyone Thanks for reading

[@BOBBI200O]

THE DEATHDROP ON THE MAINSTAGE OMG!!! I have to ask now who's your fave from s16? I definately got Banana Fever

[@Dana-v3sekai]

I kind of thought that on JD2025, Jack Rose would be trying to save his friends continuing this sort of lore in this Story Mode.

[@theJellyBeanies]

Oh gosh this like infinity war all over again. 😂

[@evannn.711]

I need a serve scoring system. that goes SERVE when you get a gold move

[@davidkonevky7372]

Why does Wanderlust's evil form look less creepy than his normal form

[@giovannatoledo7034]

1:34

[@Sabaloves]

I hope we get more answers soon on this storyy

[@a.g.r1350]

We need a lore vid on the Night Swan Prequel, I don’t have Just Dance plus so I can’t play it 😢

[@chloejoyhenry3137]

Agreed, and maybe a lore video about Agent D, plus I miss the SERVE jokes.
