A second CD is also included with the package, beatmania APPEND YebisuMIX, exclusive to this release. The base game is what is called a "Key disc", meaning it can be used to launch other APPEND games in the series, this was made so that they could contain more music and assets on the game without having to ship the engine. beatmania is played with a controller with one turn table and 5 keys, three white and two black.
