Release Information
- Release date: March 18th, 1998
General Information / Changes
- HIDDEN modifier is introduced, which makes notes disappear in the middle of the screen.
- DOUBLE modifier is introduced, which allows a single player to play the 1P & 2P version of charts while using a single lifebar and score counter.
- Only arcade game with the HIDDEN and DOUBLE modifiers where they must be activated using a button command instead of by pressing or holding down a button.
- Difficulty levels are now on a scale of 1 to 6.
- Hiroshi Watanabe makes his BEMANI debut.
- 20,novemver and e~emotion had their typos from the previous game fixed, and are now 20,november and e-motion.
- Some of the mechanics of FREE ZONE were changed:
- Some scratch notes can appear during FREE ZONE.
- To obtain a GREAT, players must play perfectly (i.e. obtain what would be considered a GREAT judgment) during every scratch note of the FREE ZONE. It is counted as one GREAT, which is why notecounts are not different between the original beatmania and 2ndMIX.
- By playing perfectly, a base Stage Score of 100,000 points can now be obtained on all songs.
- Some scratch notes can appear during FREE ZONE.

- e-motion (2nd MIX): Will be played on the fifth stage, instead of e-motion, in CLASSIC.
- Acid Bomb: Will be played on the third stage, instead of Salamander Beat Crush mix, in TECHNO.

Modifiers

- 2-Credit: Hold 1, 3 and 5, press 2P START, then before the screen completely fades out let go of all buttons and then hold 7 and 9.
