:The most difficult play mode -- harder than HYPER and much harder than NORMAL. Prior to [[AC HAPPY SKY|HAPPY SKY]], ANOTHER charts did not have their own difficulty ratings and would display as the same difficulty as the HYPER version. Some tracks [[IIDX General Info#Why_doesn.27t_.28song_X.29_sound_the_same_as_.28song_X_on_a_different_difficulty.29.3F|have an ANOTHER that sounds different from the original song]]. ANOTHER is intended generally for experienced players and usually contains notecharts with a difficulty of 9 to 12. Not every song has an ANOTHER version, though songs without ANOTHER charts typically originate from older styles. | :The most difficult play mode -- harder than HYPER and much harder than NORMAL.

;ARENA Mode | |||
:A matching battle mode introduced in [[AC CANNON BALLERS|CANNON BALLERS]] via an online update, and was first unveiled in [[KONAMI Arcade Championship|The 7th KONAMI Arcade Championship]], whereas four players, played locally or online, compete in a set of four songs. A special pacemaker graph, ARENA target score, is exclusive to this mode to track the performances for all players real time. When playing online on certain time periods, the player earns ARENA CUBES which can be used to unlock songs and hidden LEGGENDARIA charts. | |||
;ASSIST | ;ASSIST | ||
:A category of modifiers that automatically play notes for the player, including 5KEYS, AUTO-SCRATCH, LEGACY, and any combination thereof. Charts cleared with ASSIST modifiers will be marked with an ASSIST CLEAR until the player achieves an EASY CLEAR or higher. Notes that are automatically played do not count towards EX score, so while ASSIST mods can help in clearing the chart, they will reduce the maximum EX score attainable due to the lower number of playable notes. CS releases prior to [[CS GOLD|GOLD CS]] do not save scores with the ASSIST mods 5KEY and/or AUTO-SCRATCH. | :A category of modifiers that automatically play notes for the player, including 5KEYS, AUTO-SCRATCH, LEGACY, and any combination thereof.
