3 play modes to choose from!

3 play modes available in either: solo/2 players, on/offline, and competitive/co-op.

STORY – Solo Play

Story Mode lets you play solo at your own pace while learning the game. The main characters are Ceena and Ame, members of the game-streaming influencer unit “Pupiccolo.” One day, after one live stream, they suddenly find themselves caught in an online controversy and are forced to take a break from streaming. The story begins as they return to streaming after their suspension. Follow the journey of these two as they face challenges on various stages, share laughter with friends, and grow together—sometimes struggling, but always moving
forward. As you progress through the story, new characters and songs will be
unlocked.

VERSUS – Solo or 2 players

VERSUS mode lets you enjoy one-on-one battles. Online, you can choose from “Ranked Matches”, “Casual Matches”, and “Private Matches” to play against friends. Offline options include “Local Battles “using two devices, “Share-the-Device battle” for 2 players on one device, and “COM Battles” for solo play. Play in your favorite style and enjoy the game to the fullest! There are 16 playable characters in total, including collaboration characters! Make the most of each character’s unique traits to win your battles!

DUOps – 2 players

DUOps mode lets you team up with friends or online players to battle against opponents together. You can enjoy cooperative play both online and offline. Since it’s a co-op mode, you can invite friends regardless of skill level and have fun together. Clearing stages in this mode rewards you with more in-game currency, “BeatCoin.”
