Release Information

  • Release Date: March 27th, 2002.
  • Soundtrack Release Date: June 19th, 2002.

General Information / Changes

  • Many of the KONAMI originals from 5thMIX have returned. However, none of the previous Dancemania licenses removed in DDRMAX returned.
  • Challenge Mode added. It plays similar to Nonstop Mode, except you can only get a Good, Miss, or Bad four times in a song; four missteps results in an automatic Game Over. Many of these songs use a separate difficulty level, CHALLENGE/ONI difficulty. Additionally, each Challenge course has a variable number of songs, unlike Nonstop courses which all have four songs each.
    • Combo increases only if players get the Perfect judgment.
    • Combo increased by one for jumps (instead of two in normal gameplay). Used until DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME.
  • Scoring system works similar to DDRMAX, with one major difference: fixed maximum score is now 10,000,000 X the foot level in a song (for example, a Level 10 chart has a max possible score of 100,000,000).
    • This scoring system would also be used in DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME.
    • Post-song bonuses are no longer granted.
  • Difficulty ratings return, now on a scale of 1 to 10.
  • jun makes her BEMANI debut in this game.
  • Introduces the DARK modifier, which hides the stepping zone. The DARK modifier can be chosen among the OFF (Vivid), FLAT, and SOLO options. Starting with SuperNOVA, this modifier was separated.
  • Last game that uses the "music from beatmania" label from old versions.
  • All DanceDanceRevolution 5thMIX arcade songs received brand-new banners, replacing the old banners (which used the song's background image as its banner).
  • The Dancemania licenses have generic background movies as their graphics.
  • First DanceDanceRevolution game to hide the actual BPM of a song by showing random 3-digit BPMs on the songwheel.
  • New songs: 53
  • Total songs: 135

EXTRA STAGE

To unlock this song, you must clear a HEAVY chart with a rating of AA or higher on your last stage. MAXX UNLIMITED's HEAVY chart (Single or Double depending on current play style) will then become available as your EXTRA STAGE, with no way to change difficulty or song.

The EXTRA STAGE is on a "Pressure" life meter; it starts out at maximum health, but will not be replenished. In addition, the x1.5, Reverse, and Dark modifiers are in effect.

To unlock this song, you must AA one of MAXX UNLIMITED's HEAVY charts on EXTRA STAGE. 革命's CHALLENGE charts (Single or Double depending on current play style) will then appear as your ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE. Like with the EXTRA STAGE, you cannot change the song or chart.

The ONE MORE EXTRA STAGE is on a "Sudden Death" life system: If you break your combo, you instantly fail the stage. The modifiers 3X, Dark, and Reverse are on by default, and cannot be turned off.

Unlock Information

In DDRMAX2, all players using the arcade machine contribute points that can unlock various content hidden in the game. A total of 31 items can be unlocked. The total of points earned is seen by the player after each play session with the item numbers that are unlocked so far (if any).

Points are earned as follows:

  • Finish a song with an E or D grade: 0 points
  • Finish a song with a C, B, A, or AA grade: 1 point
  • Finish a song with a AAA grade: 10 points

This applies to each song played during CHALLENGE courses as well. In VERSUS play, both players contribute points; in DOUBLE play, the player contributes double the points.

By default, it takes 750 points to unlock an item, but if unlocks happen too quickly or slowly, that value will be adjusted downward or upward when the next item comes up. For example, if players earn two unlocks in a short time period, the next unlock after that will likely be raised to 1,500 points. Additionally, the items do not necessarily unlock in order. If an item is unlocked within a short time, then the next item is skipped. Once the list gets down to 30, it will cycle back to the top and unlocks will resume with the next item. Item 31 will always be unlocked last.

Unlock Codes

Alternatively, KONAMI also provided command codes for arcade operators to manually unlock content. To do so, all the earned points in the machine have to be reset and thus, all unlocked items (if any) will be lost. Each PASS code only unlock the specified amount of items.

  1. Open the cabinet, and put the machine into TEST MODE by pressing the Service button inside the cabinet.
  2. Select GAME OPTIONS and then, CLEAR MACHINE POINT. When asked for confirmation, select YES.
  3. Select EXIT on the game options screens to return to the TEST MODE screen.
  4. Select GAME OPTIONS again but instead of pressing the Start button, step and hold on the Down arrow on the left (P1) side.
  5. Press and hold the Service button inside the cabinet again. While holding the button, press the P1 Start button.
  6. The screen will now display the SECRET screen, select APPEND.
  7. The screen will now display the password input screen. Use P1 Left and Right buttons on the cabinet to move the cursor, P1 Start button to change the letter at the cursor. When done with the password, press P1 Start button while holding P1 Left and Right buttons.
  8. The screen will display either "REGISTRATION" or "PASSWORD ERROR", then return to the SECRET screen. The former means the items have been successfully unlocked. The latter is an error message displayed when an incorrect password has been entered; re-select "APPEND" and enter the correct password.
  9. Select "EXIT" to return to the main TEST MODE screen. Do not select "INITIALIZE" as this will reset the machine.
