• Free Base Content: Players will be able to unlock eight songs from μ’s and Aqours and three types of fan-favorite μ’s, Aqours, and Saint Snow costumes for free.
• “View Live Show” Mode – A new mode allowing players to enjoy the performance without playing the rhythm action game. With this mode, players can freely operate the camera to focus on one specific idol member or capture the full stage, and take photos of their favorite scenes.
• “Live Show Medley” Mode – A new mode in which players can relive up to 20 of their favorite performances in a set list that they create.

Fans can also create their own “Home Meeting !!” by collecting their favorite tracks out of 125 additional songs and selecting from 69 costumes; these can be obtained by collecting materials in-game, or purchasing downloadable content.** Players can also enjoy special color variations of some costumes, and pick their favorite outfits in order to customize the feeling of each musical performance. A player can have even more fun by coordinating their costumes with the anime character. Many anime fans tend to love anime cosplay costumes and quite interestingly anyone can order them to live their favorite character’s life.

* In some cases, players may need materials that can only be obtained from songs that are purchased as downloadable contents to create costumes.
* Sub-unit costumes can be used only in sub-unit and solo performances.
