General Information / Changes
- First BEMANI game to feature a modernized version of an older game as a game mode. 2ndMIX MODE is a high-definition remake of DanceDanceRevolution 2ndMIX with all the songs except STRICTLY BUSINESS and the STEP BATTLE songs featured.
- However, this is not the first time 2ndMIX has been remade; a previous remake was done in DanceDanceRevolution 3rdMIX, using the 3rdMIX interface.
- Characters in 2ndMIX MODE no longer have their original dance routines. They use the routines introduced in DanceDanceRevolution X and DanceDanceRevolution SuperNOVA instead.
- 2ndMIX MODE also uses the same camera angles as the main game. Because of this, the dancers appear very small in-game.
- Much like 2ndMIX, mechanics featured after 2ndMIX (such as Freeze Arrows or Shock Arrows) are absent.
- Interface theme is taken from DanceDanceRevolution II.
- The system background music is based on the default music select from DanceDanceRevolution II as well, which was composed by TAG.
- DRILL COURSE from X2 has been removed.
- Last DanceDanceRevolution game to feature courses until DanceDanceRevolution A20.
- All DanceDanceRevolution X2 licenses originally featured in DanceDanceRevolution HOTTEST PARTY3 and DanceDanceRevolution X2 CS have been removed.
- Subsequently, all licenses from A Different Drum records were also removed.
- The CLUB background dance stage introduced in DanceDanceRevolution X2 has been removed. It would later be restored in DanceDanceRevolution A, though.
- A Clear Marker system has been added, replacing the clear notes from DanceDanceRevolution X2 when a song was cleared. A diagonal "sticker" will appear on top of the song's cover jacket, which comes in the following colors:
- Blue: normal CLEAR;
- Green with a circle mark: cleared with a GREAT FULL COMBO; and
- Gold with a circle mark: cleared with either a PERFECT/MARVELOUS FULL COMBO.
- Target Score system added, allowing the player to select a rival or their own score to track between songs.
- BEMANI TITLE sort option added. This sorts songs according to which of the other five major BEMANI series they also appear in.
- First DanceDanceRevolution game to use the Star system to determine if player gets EXTRA STAGE.
- First DanceDanceRevolution game where song selections under a selected folder are shown and the other folders are not shown. This is also seen in DanceDanceRevolution (2013).
- An update on August 2nd, 2012 introduced QUICK PLAY mode, in which the player can pay to play on a per-song basis using PASELI, rather than pay for a set of songs.
- EXTRA STAGE-exclusive songs can be played in Quick Play Mode with a normal lifebar as long as the player has nine Result Stars.
- Last game in the X series. However, its interface and unlock systems would later be re-used in the subsequent game.
- Last DanceDanceRevolution game to feature accessories as wearable customization for characters.
- Last DanceDanceRevolution arcade game to use KONAMI's 2003-2013 logo.
- eAMUSEMENT support for DanceDanceRevolution X3 VS 2ndMIX ended on April 30th, 2013.
- New songs: 83
- Total songs: 527

Full Song List
Default Songs
EXTRA STAGE / ENCORE EXTRA STAGE
X3 introduces a new system for accessing the EXTRA STAGE, known as the Result Star System. This feature is only available in PRO Mode. Up to three stars can be obtained for clearing a song, with the following conditions (grade stars do not accumulate):
| Star(s) | Requirement |
|---|---|
| ★★★ | For obtaining the grade AAA. |
| ★★ | For obtaining the grade AA. |
| ★ | For obtaining the grade A. |
| ★ | For obtaining the grade B, C or D. |
| ★ | For a Full Combo. |
| ★ | For clearing a song above a certain level, depending on the player's title (see below). |
| ★ | Bonus after the first play session of the day (added on February 2nd, 2012). |
For the red Result Star (★), the following levels have to be cleared depending on the player's title. The titles are shown at the start and end of a credit, below the ENJOY LEVEL, after introducing an eAMUSEMENT PASS (note that only the highest title between Single and Double Play is shown):
| Title | Requirement |
|---|---|
| ??? | Level 6 or higher. |
| 足はじめ | Level 7 or higher. |
| 足戦士 | Level 8 or higher. |
| 足侍 | Level 9 or higher. |
| 足騎士 | Level 10 or higher. |
| 足貴族 | Level 11 or higher. |
| 足将軍 | Level 12 or higher. |
| 足王 | Level 13 or higher. |
| 足皇帝 | Level 14 or higher. |
| 足龍 | Level 15 or higher. |
| 足鳳凰 | Level 16 or higher. |
| 足紙さま | Level 17 or higher. |
| 足神 | Level 18 or higher. |
| 大足神 | Level 19 or higher. |
To unlock the EXTRA STAGE, the player must accumulate nine Result Stars, after which the stars are used and must be obtained again. If EXTRA STAGE is not reached, any stars are carried over to the next playthough via eAMUSEMENT. Each player has its own set of stars whether if it is played on VERSUS or not, and no more than nine stars can be carried at a time. If either player access EXTRA STAGE on VERSUS, both players' stars are used instead, regardless of count.
EXTRA STAGE can also be accessed on cabinets without e-AMUSEMENT support, but since these stars do not carry over between each playthrough, the only way is to obtain exactly three stars per song.
Since each player can obtain a maximum of three per song, Result Stars higher in the list above take priority over lower ones. For example, a player getting a AAA Full Combo on their first song of the day will receive the three white stars for a grade of AAA, and will not receive the green Full Combo star. The colors of the Result Stars have no importance for unlocking EXTRA STAGE.
*Unlike the other Result Stars, the dark blue Daily Star is obtained on the end-of-game screen after the player's first round of the day, and is obtained even if the player fails some or all of their stages or does not play on PRO Mode. For example, if the player obtains 8 Result Stars on their first round of the day, they have not met the EXTRA STAGE conditions by the time they complete FINAL STAGE. However, they will receive a 9th star just afterward, guaranteeing that they will be able to unlock EXTRA STAGE on their next round.
At first, two exclusive songs, one for each STAGE (EXTRA and ENCORE EXTRA) are available; more songs are added over time. This time around, songs were also added directly as EXTRA STAGE and others kept their ENCORE EXTRA STAGE-only status until they were finally unlocked for everyone.
As of April 25th, 2012, Amalgamation received CHALLENGE charts after being unlocked for all players. As of November 5th, 2012, all the songs introduced as EXTRA/ENCORE STAGE have been unlocked for normal play.
- ENCORE EXTRA STAGE Requirement
To unlock the ENCORE EXTRA STAGE, the player must get a rank of AA or higher on EXPERT difficulty on an EXTRA STAGE-specific song. No Result Stars are earned on either EXTRA STAGE or ENCORE EXTRA STAGE.
- For Tohoku EVOLVED, you cannot use the WAVE modifier when playing any EXTRA TOUR song during EXTRA STAGE.
- For LOVE IS THE POWER -Re:born-, a PERFECT FULL COMBO is required to clear it (anything below PERFECTs or any N.G. on Freeze Arrows will trigger an instant stage failure).
| Song | ENCORE EXTRA STAGE | EXTRA STAGE | Normal Play Unlock |

| Amalgamation | - | 11/16/2011 - 4/24/2012 | 4/25/2012 |

EXTRA TOUR
EXTRA TOUR was announced on May 12th, 2012 and started on May 14th, 2012. In this event, four new songs were added as EXTRA STAGE. They each appeared in specific regions at first and moved to other regions each day (non-Japanese cabinets were set in the Tokyo prefecture). After playing all EXTRA TOUR songs at least once, any one of them could be used to unlock a new ENCORE EXTRA STAGE, Tohoku EVOLVED. The four EXTRA STAGE songs each contain three versions, with one being randomly chosen at each playthrough.
On July 4th, 2012, the EVOLVED nonstop course was revealed, giving access to all five songs (TYPE1/Ver.A only) and revealing London EVOLVED Ver.A's CHALLENGE chart and Tohoku EVOLVED's DIFFICULT chart for the first time.
The event ended on July 22nd, 2012. On the following day, all songs except Tohoku EVOLVED were freely available on the EXTRA STAGE. On August 2nd, 2012, London EVOLVED's remaining CHALLENGE charts were revealed in Quick Play Mode only. On September 26th, 2012, the four songs were unlocked for normal play and Tohoku EVOLVED's CHALLENGE charts were revealed in Quick Play Mode. On November 5th, 2012, Tohoku EVOLVED was unlocked for normal play.
| Song | ENCORE EXTRA STAGE | EXTRA STAGE | Normal Play Unlock |

| tokyoEVOLVED | - | 5/14/2012 - 9/25/2012 | 9/26/2012 |

CROSSOVER DDR
As of August 2nd, 2012, TRIP MACHINE REVOLUTION and PARANOiA Revolution can appear in EXTRA STAGE through the CROSSOVER DDR event in 2ndMIX MODE (detailed in its own section). Using one of them to successfully access ENCORE EXTRA STAGE (including Tohoku EVOLVED as of September 26th, 2012) will reveal LOVE IS THE POWER -Re:born- as the ENCORE EXTRA STAGE.
| Song | ENCORE EXTRA STAGE | EXTRA STAGE | Normal Play Unlock |
|---|---|---|---|
| TRIP MACHINE EVOLUTION | - | 8/02/2012 - 11/04/2012 | 11/05/2012 |
| PARANOiA Revolution | - | 8/02/2012 - 11/04/2012 | 11/05/2012 |
| LOVE IS THE POWER -Re:born- | 8/02/2012 - 11/04/2012 | - | 11/05/2012 |
2ndMIX MODE
A completely remade DanceDanceRevolution 2ndMIX is featured as a separate mode in DanceDanceRevolution X3 VS 2ndMIX. This revamped version features high definition graphics, 2ndMIX dancing characters, remastered banners (with the original typos), and background animations. Nearly all of the original gameplay found in the game was kept such as the modifiers requiring command codes in order to use them, COUPLE Play being available, and hidden songs with various requirements each to make them appear. Also, all the old terminology was kept such as CUT1 returning to its former name, LITTLE.
The notable differences between the original game and the HD remake are:
- The new widescreen ratio (16:9 instead of 4:3).
- The game runs at 60 FPS now, instead of the original 30.
- All the songs from the LINK VERSION, STRICTLY BUSINESS, and the three STEP BATTLE songs were not included.
- DREAD and JANET are the only possible characters. It is not possible to change them with AFRO and LADY.
- Some of the in-game sounds (particularly the crowd cheering and countdown) are borrowed from X3 rather than re-using the original sounds from 2ndMIX.
- 2ndMIX MODE difficulty is rated from 1 to 10, due to PARANOiA Revolution and TRIP MACHINE EVOLUTION having a 10 and 9 in their charts, respectively. Originally, all songs in the game were rated from 1 to 8.
- As of June 20th, 2012, the score display has been made wider to accommodate potential 10-digit scores from PARANOiA Revolution and TRIP MACHINE EVOLUTION, and has also been moved towards the centre of the screen.

- In NORMAL MODE (2ndMIX), TRIP MACHINE EVOLUTION will then be playable.
- In HARD MODE, PARANOiA Revolution will then be playable.
As of July 4th, 2012, the Revolution boss course was revealed in X3, giving access to the two songs' DIFFICULT and EXPERT charts in X3 MODE (the course also included the four regular EXTRA/ENCORE STAGE songs).

APPEND TRAVEL
APPEND TRAVEL was an event involving seven BEMANI series to promote the release of jubeat copious APPEND. Each BEMANI game received at least a brand new song, and could buy songs and special items using APPEND ENERGY.
The event started on March 14, 2012 and ended on September 25, 2012. However, it was still possible to unlock the APPEND TRAVEL songs but not buy the event items after that.
Items
APPEND TRAVEL allowed players using e-AMUSEMENT to earn APPEND ENERGY (AE) by playing the 7 participating BEMANI games. It was the only way to buy the collaboration songs for play in jubeat. It was also possible to buy special items such as customization options and abilities for use in the other games during the duration of the event only. Once bought, a notification for the item will appear on the next login in the game.
The ENJOY LEVEL Boosters were enhanced (double effect) on August 2, 2012 to September 2, 2012 as part of the Summer Boost Campaign (サマーブーストキャンペーン).
| Item | Price | Description |
|---|---|---|
| ENJOY FULL STAGE (エンジョイフルステージ) |
500AE | This support item makes it impossible to fail 1 song. It works in 2ndMIX MODE but can't be used in EXTRA STAGE, a course or when the modifier LIFE GAUGE is set to RISKY. |
| ENJOY LEVEL Booster 40 (エンジョイレベルブースター40) |
500AE | This support item speeds up the leveling process on ENJOY LEVEL 1 to 40 only. |
| ENJOY LEVEL Booster 80 (エンジョイレベルブースター80) |
500AE | This support item speeds up the leveling process on ENJOY LEVEL 41 to 80 only. |
| jubeat Mask (jubeat仮面) |
500AE | This is a character accessory. The jubeat cube is worn as a mask except for ZERO, he wears it as a crown. |
Unlock Requirements
To unlock songs, the event required the players to get Daily Stars (★), an item also used to access the EXTRA STAGE. A Daily Star is obtained on the first new play session of the day when using e-AMUSEMENT.
By default, TWINKLE♡HEART was unlocked on the very first day of the event, except for its CHALLENGE charts. In order to unlock the CHALLENGE charts, the player had to play five days in a row four times. It was possible to take a break after each set of 5 days.
After September 25th, the requirements were reduced for the last four items to be unlocked by getting 4, 5, 6, and 7 consecutive Daily Stars respectively.
| Requirement | Song | Charts Unlocked |
|---|---|---|
| 1 consecutive day | 隅田川夏恋歌 | BEGINNER to EXPERT charts |
| 2 consecutive days | アルストロメリア (walk with you remix) | BEGINNER to EXPERT charts |
| 3 consecutive days | FLOWER | BEGINNER to EXPERT charts |

During the event, a different BEMANI crossover was unlocked each day of the week from Monday to Friday only. Each day began at 7:00 am following the daily maintenance.

CROSSOVER DDR
As of August 2nd, 2012, the CROSSOVER DDR event started, allowing players to unlock all 2ndMIX songs for play on X3's PRO or QUICK PLAY MODEs. These songs are given brand-new jackets based on the CD artwork as seen in 2ndMIX along with the banner at the bottom of the disc on the jacket (added on April 20th, 2012), and are located in the X3 VS 2ndMIX folder instead of the 2ndMIX folder. The two exceptions for these unlocks are HERO (which uses the X-edit version from X2) and PARANOiA MAX～DIRTY MIX～(in roulette) (due to the lack of Roulette option).
In 2ndMIX MODE, the song list is divided into two parts: EASY / NORMAL Mode and HARD Mode. These songs are:
- EASY / NORMAL Mode: BAD GIRLS, BOOM BOOM DOLLAR, BOYS, HAVE YOU NEVER BEEN MELLOW, IF YOU WERE HERE, KUNG FU FIGHTING, LET'S GET DOWN, MY FIRE, PUT YOUR FAITH IN ME, PUT YOUR FAITH IN ME(Jazz Groov), SMOKE, THAT'S THE WAY(I LIKE IT), TRIP MACHINE, TRIP MACHINE EVOLUTION and SP-TRIP MACHINE～JUNGLE MIX～
- HARD Mode: AM-3P, BRILLIANT 2U, BRILLIANT 2U(Orchestra-Groov), butterfly, DUB-I-DUB, GET UP'N MOVE, HERO, I believe in miracles, IF YOU WERE HERE, LITTLE BITCH, MAKE IT BETTER, MAKE IT BETTER(So-REAL Mix), PARANOiA, PARANOiA MAX～DIRTY MIX～, PARANOiA MAX～DIRTY MIX～(in roulette), PARANOiA Revolution and Stomp to my beat
Playing each chart will unlock the song into X3 mode; each difficulty, alongside Single/Double play styles, has to be unlocked separately:
- Unlocking at least one Single chart for the song also unlocks the song's BEGINNER chart.
- Unlocking all difficulties also unlocks the song's higher difficulties (CHALLENGE, and in the case of Double Play, EXPERT as well).
- COUPLE charts do not satisfy the condition, as COUPLE MODE does not exist in X3.
The FINAL STAGE exclusives, TRIP MACHINE EVOLUTION and PARANOiA Revolution, cannot be unlocked directly through playing the song itself. To actually unlock the the player must play every song (including HERO and PARANOiA MAX～DIRTY MIX～(in roulette)) for the corresponding EASY / NORMAL and HARD Mode, respectively, which will allow these songs to be played in X3 mode (as EXTRA STAGE). Both songs are also given CHALLENGE charts, though these songs are exclusive to Quick Play.
On November 5th, 2012, all the 2ndMIX songs were fully unlocked for everyone.
COURSES
Note that the vs X3, vs 2ndMIX, UPPER, BEMANI, and Revolution courses use LIFE8 for NORMAL difficulty and LIFE4 for DIFFICULT difficulty, instead of the NORMAL life gauge like the other courses.
