General Information / Changes
- Unlike the first DanceDanceRevolution UNIVERSE, DanceDanceRevolution UNIVERSE2 can be played on American and Japanese Xbox 360 consoles.
- First DanceDanceRevolution game on an Xbox console to give foot ratings to ONI charts. Only two songs (Entry of the Gladiators Kaz Mix and Orange Sky), plus one DLC song (DYNAMITE RAVE), have ONI charts, though.
- First Xbox series DanceDanceRevolution title since DanceDanceRevolution ULTRAMIX to not feature any arcade Dancemania license revivals.
- Interface is very similar to DanceDanceRevolution UNIVERSE, but with different background animations on menus, new fonts for scores and step judgments, and an easier to read Groove Radar. The interface has a heavy emphasis on reds, pinks, and purples.
- Song banners still consist of a cropped part of the song's background with the song title and artist overlaid in the same generic font as UNIVERSE.
- Unlike DanceDanceRevolution UNIVERSE, revivals from DanceDanceRevolution ULTRAMIX use their charts from that game, instead of their DDR FESTIVAL -DanceDanceRevolution- charts.
- First DanceDanceRevolution with a character creation mode.
- Once again, songs are unlocked through Quest Mode, first introduced in DanceDanceRevolution ULTRAMIX3.
- Introduced in Quest Mode is a shop, where the player can buy songs, random movies and character outfits instead of the items appearing at random, like in previous titles.
- Third and final game in the Xbox series to contain nonstop Power Mixes.
- Curiously, ON THE JAZZ and Balalaika, Carried With the Wind Jondi&Spesh mix appear exclusively in Power Mixes, and are not playable as individual songs.
- Only game in the UNIVERSE series to not feature any new BEMANI crossover songs.
- For the first time in the Xbox series, DanceDanceRevolution UNIVERSE2's DLC doesn't include any new songs and consists entirely of revivals. This is also the only game in the UNIVERSE series to not features any new songs for DLC.
- None of UNIVERSE2's DLC can be purchased anymore, except for Gamerpics.
- As the only playable 10-footer chart in UNIVERSE2 is the Double EXPERT chart of GRADIUSIC CYBER, a DLC song, there are no 10-footers available whatsoever for players who didn't buy the song while the game's DLC was still available.
- First Xbox DanceDanceRevolution game developed by Hudson Soft.
- Total songs: 75, plus 10 DLC songs
