** CHALLENGE mode is a variant of NONSTOP mode, with courses containing a variable number of songs under a single difficulty. Unlike NONSTOP mode, players may not set any modifiers (some courses had certain stages forced with certain modifiers instead). | |||

Getting any four missteps (combo breaks and/or N.G.s on Freeze Arrows) anytime during a song will trigger an instant stage failure. LIFE4 would remain exclusive in this mode until the EXTRA STAGE system revamp in [[AC DDR SuperNOVA2|DanceDanceRevolution SuperNOVA2]]. | |||
** Only DanceDanceRevolution title to hide the actual title from CHALLENGE-only songs by displaying their original version's title, banner and background when played in their respective courses.
