Features

[edit]
  • The base game includes 107 songs from DJMax Portable and DJMax Portable 2, as well as 40 new songs produced for Respect. Respect V includes five more songs in the base game.
  • 187 songs from DJMax Portable Clazziquai Edition, DJMax Portable Black Square, DJMax Technika, DJMax Trilogy, DJMax Technika 2, DJMax Technika 3, DJMax Portable 3, DJMax Technika Tune, and DJMax Technika Q, as well as 70 all-new songs are released as downloadable content.[4] See DLC for more information.

  • All background animations from previous games have been updated and remastered to support a 1080p resolution at 60 frames per second.
  • The scoring system has been overhauled to reflect that of Technika 2 and Technika 3. Each song has a base score of 300,000 points for the original PS4 version and 1,000,000 points for Respect V, the maximum score that can be achieved without utilizing the score multiplier derived from the Fever system.
  • Online mode, in which two players can play against one another to aim for the highest scores. Each player can play different chart difficulties of the same song concurrently.
  • In-game achievements have been implemented. The achievement system is used to unlock in-game content such as new songs, interface skins, online profile accessories, and artwork. Most PlayStation Network trophies, Steam achievements, and Xbox achievements for the game are tied to this system as well.

Removed features

[edit]
  • Certain types of Gear present in previous games, such as Max LP, Anti-Break, Shield and extended Fever multipliers, have been removed for balancing purposes due to the inclusion of online leaderboards.

  • Auto Fever no longer has any negative effect on the score.
