Gameplay[]

  1. Up to 4 people are able to play at the same time.
  2. There are four difficulty modes: EASY, NORMAL, CHALLENGE and EXPERT.
  3. The scores achieved when hitting notes: "MISS", "FINE", "GOOD", "GREAT" and "BRILLIANT", with "Miss" being the worst and "Brilliant" the best.
  4. The grades for clearing a song: "BAD", "WELL", "EXCELLENT", "WONDERFUL"[1] and "PERFECT".
  5. The game utilizes 8 different buttons: ↑↓→←○×□△, the four arrows on the D-pad and the four face buttons. Notes will stream in from the right, from two to four vertical lines (depending on the difficulty), towards note markers on the left side of the screen. On the highest difficulty, players will push both arrows and symbols at the same time. [2][3]
  6. A "Groove Gauge" that will either fill up or decrease depending on how well played the session was.

GUMI Room[]

Like in the Project DIVA series, Megpoid the Music includes a GUMI Room where players can:[4]

  • Change her costume and customize in-game purchased accessories.
  • Read GUMI's diary (once certain conditions are met).
  • View illustrations and PV's.

Costumes[]

See gallery for /Costumes

There are around 40 different costumes (not including items or accessories) revealed to be in the game.

These can be bought using in-game points earned while playing the game or unlocking while clearing songs under certain conditions.

Those who pre-ordered the game in Japan received a DLC code for a "ParaPhray Pre-Order Bonus", a cheerleader costume for GUMI. Players also received an additional costume when ordering from one of three specified stores: Lawson, Animate and Sofmap.
