Description:
The game will retain the same basic gameplay mechanics from the series, albeit with several new changes. Most notably being the addition of the "Star" symbol to the game's existing symbols of cross, circle, square, triangle and arrows. The "Star" symbol represents what's known as the "Scratch" move whereby players simply have to rub the screen instead of pressing the face buttons as usual, the location on the screen where the player rubs does not matter.

"Chance Time" has been modified from previous installments, with each successful beat filling a star shaped gauge on the bottom left of the screen. When filled, it triggers a final scratch symbol that, if successfully scored, will change the outcome of the scene. Another new mechanic is the "Technical Zone" mechanic, whereby when it occurs during a song players must maintain combos within that time limit to earn bonus points. Additional features like DIVA Room and Edit Mode will also be returning with additional features.
Graphically the game will see a large improvement over its predecessors due to the change in platform with the PlayStation Vita having a lot more processing power. The models in the game will also be based off the PlayStation Portable predecessors rather than the Dreamy Theater models which has a slightly different art style. There will also be improvements in the animations of the characters such as smoother hair movements for Miku's hair and Rin's ribbons. The game will also feature improved facial expressions and lighting with real-time lighting computation being added into the game.
