Unlock Information

Activate Play Mode or Modifier for Main Game

The information in this section pertains to beatmania CS through APPEND GOTTAMIX, as well as to all games that have a BONUS EDIT mode.

  • To activate a play mode or modifier for the main game, you must do so from the PRESS START BUTTON screen and then choose GAME START after you activate it.
    • When you activate a play mode or modifier, a confirmation sound will play.
    • Any active play mode or modifier will be deactivated if you go back to the PRESS START BUTTON screen, or if you choose anything other than GAME START.
    • Only DOUBLE PLAY or HIDDEN PLAY can be active; it is not possible for both DOUBLE PLAY and HIDDEN PLAY to be active at the same time.
Play Modes
  • DOUBLE PLAY
    • While holding down all three white keys (or Left, Square, and X on a standard PlayStation controller), press the START button, then release the white keys and hold down all two black keys (L1 and R1).
      • When DOUBLE PLAY is active, it is applied to the side currently playing the game.
        • In PRACTICE/NORMAL/EXPERT mode: 1P or 2P
      • DOUBLE PLAY in the main game acts like "1-Credit DOUBLE" from beatmania 2ndMIX and later.
        • "1-Credit DOUBLE" is similar to FREE mode in certain CS beatmania games, in that you pick any song that is listed; however, you can only pick two songs.
        • Unlike certain AC beatmania games in the series, you do not need to separately enter unlock codes for any songs.
Modifiers
  • HIDDEN PLAY
    • While holding down all two black keys (or L1 and R1 on a standard PlayStation controller), press the START button, then release the black keys and hold down the left and right white keys (Left and X).
      • When HIDDEN PLAY is active, it is applied to all sides currently playing the game.
        • In PRACTICE/NORMAL/EXPERT mode: 1P, 2P, or 1P & 2P

Replace Songs in EXPERT Mode

  • If you hold down the SELECT button before choosing EXPERT mode, a different confirmation sound will play, and the songs described in EXPERT Courses will replace the corresponding song in their respective EXPERT course.
