If successful, an additional Mojo point is earned. The Xbox 360 version has the ability to choose between the full version or the short version, and features two difficulties for both game modes, 'Easy', where the player can use only their hands to score, and 'Normal', where the player can use their entire body to score, as well as a 'Shout Out' feature that uses the Kinect's voice recognition function, respectively, to sing the colored on-screen lyric in light blue when an icon appears.

The Wii and PlayStation 3 versions have a Hold My Hand dance mode, where two players can share a Wii Remote or PlayStation Move Motion controller to dance. Returning features in the game include Non-Stop Shuffle, Speed Shuffle, Medley, Simons Says and Just Sweat. Players can unlock gifts such as new songs, game modes, as well as Dance Mashups which combines different dance routines in this game and the previous two installments of the Just Dance series into one song. For Dance Crew songs, the boomboxes that blast out the five judgements are located on the left side of each player's progress bar. On the PS3 version, a toggable option for karaoke-styled lyrics (with lyrics colored in yellow for both male and female vocals), in the same vein as the Japanese exclusive Just Dance game on the Wii, Just Dance Wii, is included. The lyrics for the Duet songs are now on the left side of the screen like Solo songs, and the pictograms for each dancer in Duet and Dance Crew songs are placed together on the right side. Players can now choose which dancer to play as for a Duet or Dance Crew song. Along with Solo and Duet modes, Just Dance 3 features a Dance Crew mode which allows 4 players to dance together, each with their own unique choreography, as well as playlists that group songs into different categories.

During gameplay, the progress bar is displayed above the boomboxes that blast out the five judgements, with stars being obtained during the song. Like its predecessors, up to four players can play to mirror on-screen dance choreography from over 40 songs, as they are judged on their ability to follow a dance routine to a chosen song.
