• Songs are divided between 5-key mode and 7-key mode; they do not appear on both. (Source: Bemanistyle)
• Difficulties have changed; they still use the 1-7 scale (and the stars finally return), but the difficulties appear to be different - Nothing Ain't Stoppin' Us is a 5. (Source: Gamespot screen shots.)
• The timing window is unchanged. (Source: John Stiles)
• Background music is the same as 9th CS. (Source: John Stiles)
