New Features
- 48 unique songs, including songs from DJ Max Technika, and Clazziquai's 2008 mini album Metrotronics.
- Menus:
Club Tour- Play in different club, each club is one of three gameplay types. The player must complete half the objectives to unlock the next club, but when the player completes every objective in a club, they get the Club's Emblem, which is the club's icon on the Club Tour Map. This mode is composed of 7 different areas with 4 clubs each, except the last area which only has 1 club. The game's songs that are not unlocked by Link Disc (for those without the Platinum Crew Patch) are unlocked in this mode.
Club Types:
- Music: This type gives the player a list of songs to play and the player must complete each song.
- Repertory: This type has several sets of songs given to the player, the player must complete each song in the set in order it's shown to complete the set.
- Mission: This type has various other DJ's sorted by Rank and sometimes button modes with specific goals. The player pays some gold to accept the challenge and must meet the goal given to them by the DJ before the song ends (like finish the song with an accuracy of 91% or higher, finish the song with a combo of 8,000 or more). If the player wins, their rank goes up and will earn a new title when they reach a certain rank. If they lose their rank goes down. Players cannot challenge a DJ if the DJ's rank is too high compared to theirs.
NOTE: The player can only improve their rank by completing missions in mission-type clubs. Just as the player can't challenge a DJ if the DJ's rank is to high compared to theirs, the player can't enter a club unless their rank matches that of the club rank or higher (EX: club rank is 150, can't enter unless rank is 150 or higher).
Arcade- The basic DJ Max game mode, play through one of 6 button modes in 3 stages each with your choice of a song from a list, the songs get harder the more buttons you use and the higher the stage.
Album- A combination of M/V and O.S.T. You can switch the mode by pressing the Square button to view either the M/V or O.S.T.
Collection- You can view records of the songs you have played, Play Count, Images (Wallpapers which you can save on to your PSP memory stick), Movies, Emblems (Collected by completing each club in Club Tour) and Internet Ranking (Password to enter your scores into the Official Website (Platinum Crew Members Only).
Option- Data Install for faster loading times, Language comes in Korean, Japanese and English, you can set the display of the Combo Count either IN the gear or OUT of the gear and the Fever bar can be either Classic (DJ Max Portable 2) or New (The bar is on the left side of the gear).
Network- Multi-Player using Ad-hoc PSP connections.
