Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA F 2nd (初音ミク -Project DIVA- F 2nd, Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA F 2nd^?) is a 2014 rhythm video game that was released for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita on 24 March 2014 in Japan, 18 November 2014 in North America, 21 November 2014 in Europe, and 11 December 2014 in Taiwan and Hong Kong. It is the sequel to Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA F.

Gameplay

As with previous Project DIVA games, the player has to press buttons that match the Melody Icons to its corresponding window in time to the song being played. The usual Melody Icons (cross, circle, triangle, and square), as well as their respective Double Notes and Long Notes, return for this game, including the Star icons that debuted in Project DIVA F. F 2nd introduces two new variants to the Star icons: Double Stars and Linked Stars. Double Stars are big yellow stars that are marked with a "W" (just like the Double Notes) and require players to flick/scratch the analog sticks or the screen with two fingers or thumbs and will reward bonus points when successful. Linked Stars are Star icons that are connected to each other, requiring the player to flick/scratch a successful chain. Doing this will cause the lines to glow, revealing a shape, and it will also reward players additional bonus points.

Chance Time also returns and features the same mechanics that were introduced in Project DIVA F, such as filling up the Star Gauge is the lower left-corner of the screen to cause the Chance Time Star to glow yellow and flicking/scratching will reward big bonus points and cause song's PV to trigger an alternate ending. Another returning mechanic from Project DIVA F is the Technical Zone, which requires players to maintain an uninterrupted combo within a particular section of a song for additional bonus points.

The usual four difficulties return: Easy, Normal, Hard, and Extreme. The player starts with only Easy and Normal difficulties to play, with Hard difficulty being unlocked from clearing a song on Normal difficulty, and Extreme from clearing a song on Hard. A new mechanic introduced to this game is "Pick Up" with songs randomly marked with a ribbon next to the song name and surrounded by a rainbow border. Clearing these marked songs will give players bonus DIVA Points.

DIVA Room

The DIVA Room returns and retains its appearance from Project DIVA F. Much of the functionalities from Project DIVA F also return but now feature some new ones as well. The Communication Mode also receives an upgrade, with the petting functionality now being judged by a heart that appears on the top right corner of the screen. The heart will give the character's affinity a certain number of hearts depending on how much the character is pet, when maxes out in size, it grants a greater number of hearts, but if the character is pet too much the heart explodes and the affinity meter will decrease. If the heart manages to max out three times, a special bonus time called "FEVER!" starts where the character happily tries to avoid being pet while player has to max the heart out, successfully maxing out the heart during "FEVER!" will reward more affinity bonuses.

There is a new minigame called "Patty Cake" where the player has to match the character's hand movements with the touch screen on the PS Vita version and the analog sticks on the PS3 version. There are three rounds for the minigame, with reach round changing speed depending on how the player does in the previous round, and the player has to reach a minimum amount of bars that appear on the bottom part of the screen to advance to the next round otherwise they will fail the minigame. The "Made You Look" minigame, which has the player play a combined game of "Rock-Paper-Scissors" and "Made You Look" against the character, from Project DIVA F also returns.

Players can also give presents to the characters, with their affinity either increasing or decreasing depending on the gift given (i.e. giving Rin Orange Juice will increase her affinity significantly while giving her Vegetable Juice decreases it). Room Items also return with the same functionalities from F with some items causing a Room Event cutscene to occur. These cutscenes can also automatically happen randomly when a certain amount of time has passed. Up to three characters appear in these events, with a small cutscene showing the visiting characters entering and leaving the chosen character's room before and after the event respectively. Gadgets are another returning function, with two utilizing the PS Vita's Clock feature while others are dedicated to the game's other features (i.e. the TV lets the players watch song PVs, the Jukebox lets the players customize a setlist of songs for the DIVA Room, and Game Console letting the players play the game's credits minigame).

Edit Mode

Edit Mode returns and retains many of the functions from the previous game, but now feature some new character motions, stages, and background illustrations. Players can also upload their Edit Data online, which will then show up on ranking boards, which is categorize into two sections: one called "Edit Rankings" that ranks the most trending Edit Data based on the number favorites and download count and the other called "New Edits List" which lists the newest Edit Data uploaded online. Exclusive to the Japanese version of the game is piapro function which lets players download songs from piapro via the game as MP3 files and use those songs for their Edits. Agreement to the piapro's licensing terms must be made before downloading songs.

AR/Studio Mode

The AR and Studio Mode features from Project DIVA F return for the PS Vita and PS3 versions of Project DIVA F 2nd respectively. For the PS Vita version, AR Mode is an augmented reality feature that let's Miku and the other characters appear as if they are in the real world via the Vita's camera function. Two of the features in this mode include Portrait Mode, which let's players set a pose for the characters of their choosing and take a photo, which will then show up in the Vita's Photos app, and AR Live Mode, which requires the Live Studio Marker card that is included with the game. This feature has the characters performing songs as if they are performing on stage. For the PS3 version, Studio Mode retains some of the same functionalities from AR Mode but with stock backgrounds for the Photo Studio feature and an actual stage for the Live Mode feature, which is based on Yokohama Arena from the Hatsune Miku Magical Mirai 2013 event.

Changes from Project DIVA F

• Some character models have been slightly refined (e.g. Len now has a white band holding his ponytail and KAITO's shoes now have blue markings).
