- The E and I colored yellow is a reference to the 31st installment of the beatmania IIDX series.

- Songs beginning with a number have been segregated from OTHERS in alphabetical sorting, now placing under a new 0-9 folder.

- It cannot be combined with RANDOM lane gacha, and can only be used in STANDARD, FREE or PREMIUM FREE mode.
- Shortcuts for Turntable resistance, Screenshot, Play Recorder and Play Analyzer have been added.

- Players now have the option to select DJ VIP PASS GOLD or PLATINUM when DJ VIP PASS BLACK is available to be selected.
- When playing PREMIUM Start, the minimum level restriction (for no Dan clears) is set to 10-11-12 (equivalent to 7th Dan clears).
- If your account is linked to beatmania IIDX ULTIMATE MOBILE, you can edit Song selection memo and be notified of any in-game events and casual tournaments via the app.
- First beatmania IIDX game since SIRIUS with several default system BGMs across game modes (outside STEP UP mode or event-based ones).
- EPOLIS' location test marks the first one for a beatmania IIDX arcade game since beatmania IIDX 25 CANNON BALLERS to not have a newly composed song by Takayuki Ishikawa on it.

Other Unlock Events
WORLD TOURISM
The WORLD TOURISM unlock system, first introduced in beatmania IIDX 28 BISTROVER, will return on November 2nd, 2023.
Folders are added to the selection in one player Standard Mode (playable on any stage) and Premium Free. Playing a song from any folder will bring up a board with ten spaces between START and GOAL. Five spaces are awarded for playing a song (clear or fail does not matter), and an extra space is awarded for fulfilling each of the following conditions:
- DJ LEVEL AA or HARD CLEAR (or better)
- PREMIUM START (Japan only)
- LIGHTNING MODEL play
TOURISM BOOSTER, exclusive to Japanese LIGHTNING MODEL cabinets, also returns; it doubles the progress for each session if enabled.
Once the Q-Pro reaches the GOAL, a bonus is awarded, and the remaining spaces will carry over to the next board in the folder. If on the last board, the remaining spaces are lost. A number of how many spaces remain before the end goal are also shown.
The following rewards are awarded for each goal, in order:
- 3000 EPO
- 20 V-Discs
- 6000 EPO
- 40 V-Discs
- Unlockable song
After playing a song from a WORLD TOURISM folder, the folders will disappear for the rest of the credit. Once the song has been unlocked from a folder, it will disappear from the selection entirely.

WEEKLY RANKING
The WEEKLY RANKING feature was added to beatmania IIDX 31 RESIDENT on November 1st, 2023. The WEEKLY RANKING song changes every Wednesday at 12:00 noon.
You earn a star (the day after the period for a song ends) if your score in the leaderboards for the featured song's chart is high enough. Note that stars depend on each song's chart on both Single and Double Play, not on the whole song itself, which means you can earn up to six stars per song.
In the song list menu, a bar shows your WEEKLY RANKING star progress on the featured song's chart; the arrow determines your current position in the leaderboards:
- White star: if the arrow is located in the white section.
- Bronze star: if the arrow is located in the cyan section.
- Silver star: if the arrow is located in the gray section.
- Gold star: if the arrow is located in the yellow section.
- Platinum star: if the arrow is located in the very small blue section (top 10 in the leaderboards).
