The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

Playing feels like bouncing through a high-energy mixtape of dance tracks, stepping to the beat in quick, upbeat bursts of rhythm-driven fun.

About

The first "catch up" Japanese Dance Dance Revolution title. Most of the songlist consists of new Konami originals from Dance Dance Revolution ULTRAMIX and Dance Dance Revolution EXTREME CS (America), along with a few new licenses, some of the licenses from Dance Dance Revolution EXTREME CS (America), some old Konami original DDR songs, and two new KONAMI originals. Song list as a result has a large emphasis on Bemani crossovers than most Japanese CS DDR releases. Of the 55 Konami originals in DDR FESTIVAL, only 19 are original DDR songs/original remixes. Also, it is the only Japanese DDR without Dancemania licenses, hence no Dancemania advertisement is featured in the attract mode.
