Club Resurrection

Club Resurrection is a fan made restoration project bringing Dance Central VR back to a near live playable state. Single player and saves work again on both PC/Rift and Quest, this site brings back the community features the shutdown took offline, and multiplayer lounges are playable again.

What is restored

PCQuestFeature
Single player with functioning save games
DLC Access for single and multiplayer modes
🚫Hosting multiplayer lounges (public and private)
Joining multiplayer lounges (public and private)
Per-song leaderboards (new rankings, not the Meta one)
VS challenges (new method, done through this website)

What it does

The game itself is fixed by the loader on PC/Rift, or the patcher on Quest — they get it running again without modifying your original install. Everything else lives on this website: per-song leaderboards, player profiles, and asynchronous VS challenges you set against other dancers.

Multiplayer lounges hold up to sixteen players together, though more than four may introduce some odd behavior. PC can host and join; Quest can join.

Join the community on Discord. Voice chat while you dance, and find people to fill a lounge.

Getting started

Pick your platform for the full setup walkthrough.

Quest

You will need to have Dance Central VR installed on your headset in order for the Club Resurrection patcher to work. You will also need a PC that already has SideQuest working with your headset.

  1. Make an account. Log in on this site with Discord. Once your account exists, open the Account section and attest that you own the game and any DLC you have. That attestation is what unlocks your DLC in the patched build.
  2. Download the patcher. Grab Quest patcher v1.5 (see all builds on the Downloads page) onto the PC that has SideQuest paired with your headset, and unzip it anywhere you can find it again.
  3. Provision the patcher. Open it and paste in your account key from the Account page. Click Detect Quest, wait for it to finish, then click Fetch Provision.
  4. Patch & install. Switch to the Install tab and run Patch & Install. This pulls your genuine copy off the headset, fixes legacy storage, swaps the broken Meta networking over to the custom Tailscale network, and sideloads the fixed copy back onto the headset as a separate app. Your original install is left untouched.

At that point single player is ready with nothing else needed. Launch the patched game from Unknown Sources in the headset library.

Joining a multiplayer lounge

With the game closed on your headset, open the Lounges list on this site. Tap an open lounge to pick it, or — if a host gave you a private code — enter it in the Join by code box on that page. Either way, the next time you launch the game it joins automatically; if it's already running, close it and relaunch. For now Quest can only join lounges — hosting is PC only.

PC / Rift

You will need your copy of Dance Central VR installed through the Oculus / Meta app desktop app. Note that you do not have to have the headset physically connected in order for the loader to work, Airlink and Virtual Desktop both have been tested and work, though Airlink does seem to be a little less stable.

  1. Make an account. Log in on this site with Discord. Once your account exists, open the Account section and attest that you own the game and any DLC you have. That attestation is what unlocks the game and your DLC in the loader.
  2. Download the loader. Grab PC / Rift loader v1.5 (see all builds on the Downloads page), unzip it anywhere you can find it again, and keep the files together. Run Club-Resurrection.exe and leave it open.
  3. Add your account key. Copy your key from the Account page into the loader's Settings so it knows who you are.
  4. Start. On the Play tab, select Community and click Start, then launch Dance Central VR from your Oculus / Meta library. Your finished Club "Perform It" scores stream onto the leaderboard as you play.

Multiplayer

You're put on the Club Resurrection network automatically — nothing to install, no VPN, and it's only up while you're playing. Unlike Quest, PC can both host and join.

To host, open the Host tab, choose Public (listed in the lounge browser for anyone to join) or Private (you get a room code to share), then click Host lounge. You can do it before you launch or while you're already playing — either way the lounge opens by itself once you reach the Club.

To join, open the Join tab and click an open lounge, or paste a room code. It connects the moment you reach the Club.
