Pump It Up Phoenix 2

Coming May 2026, announced at the end of the new Extra Content Update for PIU Phoenix



We know from PIU RISE's roadmap that there will be some kind of connection between the two games.
And since this teaser for new Phoenix songs are Chrono Circle songs, we can assume Phoenix 2 will have more Chrono Circle songs crossed over.

feels prime 2 vibes

I hope the vibes for Phoenix 2 are better, Phoenix 1 wasn't able to keep me interested despite having some REALLY good new songs and charts

MORE GREEN RHYTHM GAMES

ALL SHALL BE GREEN, NONE WILL BE SPARED

I think they misunderstood when countries called for people to be more green.

Some photos from someone who is attending PlayX4. We get to see a glimpse of the new mascot and the new menu. (I don't know how to post photos sorry...)

Got you handled (Next time, for reference, you'll need to get the url for the image itself, and not the tweet, and then load that in between the [ img ] BBcode (There's a button next to the reply box to generate it for you, placing your cursor in between the two pieces, allowing you to just paste the link once you have it and loaded the code in.)):

oh, thank you! I did copy the image and added the link between the img command, but when I previewed it, it didn't really embed....

that's intro is slaps, really familiar to 2023 phoenix but green ui

I posted on reddit a bunch of links for charts and UI I found in the last couple of days, but here are some of the things we know so far from PlayX4

- New commands:
* Note Timing: Adjust the timing of the notes (ie the notes will appear visually earlier or later, vs Judge Timing which makes them be judged earlier or later and is not visible on the notes)
* Filter:
--> PB: Set pumbility to invisible
--> CM: Set command to invisible

Apparently, just as it says, it makes it so that you can hide your pumbility or commands if that's what you want

- PIU RISE Link: If you own PIU RISE and link your account, you can play PIU RISE *ORIGINAL* songs and charts. If you own DLCs you can also play the original songs from those. To link it you just have to put your ampass card in a menu on PIU RISE.
* There's a section in the channels menu that allows you to change between "RISE MIX" and "ARCADE MIX". RISE MIX shows you Rise (half double) charts, while ARCADE MIX has everything else, including single and double charts for RISE songs.
* For now in the early access version, it seems like only the base-game content is included in a "R!SE VOLUME 1" channel.
* Half Doubles use a blue ball for level indicators.

- It seems like there's an indicator for when your lifebar is at its real maximum value, when it reaches the real limit allowed by the overflow. This makes the lifebar get an electric effect (see for example this video)
- When the lifebar reaches zero it turns dark (but it doesn't stay like that if you regain health).
- Shortcuts now have banners related to the song they're from to make them easier to find.
- A song had a small P in a circle in its jacket, which for now is speculated to be used to indicate premium songs.
- Series Zone has characters representing the respective game(s).
- Online matching level ranges are now smaller (2 levels instead of 3)

Title loop:


RISE MIX and ARCADE MIX:

that's so cool, i didn't know it was already available to play somewhere and that there was so much info
i still find it funny that it basically looks like pump it up whatsapp lol

Looks like release date in Korea is July 9th (mentioned on a post by a PIU Studio) and internationally on July 20th (Mentioned by at least one distributor, and also by Andamiro Japan on their site).

They uploaded song list videos on their youtube channel yesterday, I'll just link the ones for Basic Mode and New Tunes, but there's more on their channel for a more extensive look on the other categories (K-Pop, Original, World Music, etc), mostly to see what's returning from Phoenix and what charts have changed rating, since anything new is on New Tunes.
(And yeah, Kugutsu is in)
Also, apparently songs that were Premium exclusive on Phoenix 1 are available in normal credits for Phoenix 2
And it seems like the 1-credit premium option will be available to all versions of the game, not just US/CA (and would be up to the arcade operator whether to use it or not)





Since release is coming soon, we should be getting BGA videos and chart videos soon on the official channel. (And maybe more info on their website)
