Dance Dance Revolution EXTRA MIX is a music video game that is part of the Dance Dance Revolution and Bemani series. It was developed and produced by Konami, and released in Japan on June 7, 2001 for the PlayStation video game console. It does not have an arcade counterpart.

Many of the songs in the game are from the DDR Solo games, Dance Dance Revolution 4thMix, and preview songs from Dance Dance Revolution 5thMix, including music by BeForU.

Gameplay

Main article: Gameplay of Dance Dance Revolution

As with other games in the series, EXTRA MIX has players moving their feet in a set pattern to the beat of a song. EXTRA MIX is known^{[by whom?]} for its notoriously strict timing, which narrows the timing window necessary for Greats and Perfects.

Interfaces

EXTRA MIX uses the "CD wheel banner" (in all Music Mode) and "Genre sorting" song selection interface of 4thMIX,^[1] although with different colors. The male announcer was changed to a female voice. The frame rate during gameplay hovers around 30, characteristic of pre-5thMIX DDR games. This console game has an Arcade Link feature into a Dance Dance Revolution 5thMIX Arcade.

Music

Some songs in the game are from the DDR Solo games, Dance Dance Revolution 4thMix,^[1] and preview songs from Dance Dance Revolution 5thMix—such as "DIVE" by BeForU. EXTRA MIX features the sneak peek video of the J-pop group BeForU seen only in the ending credits of the console.
