Though the basic gameplay of Theatrhythm hasn’t changed for Final Bar line, three styles are available for players to pick from. There’s the Standard Style that follows the core gameplay, a Pair Style for local multiplayer, and a Simple Style for less demanding play.

Pair Style is a Theatrhythm Final Bar Line gameplay style meant for two players playing on the same screen. Three different options vary up the note display based on your preferences. BMS and FMS styles separate the players into upper and lower lanes, while EMS style uses the left and right sides.

Simple Style is less demanding and uses only one button and the sticks for gameplay.

The “Profica” profile system is a player card that can be customized with art and showcase your records. It can also be set with a “Summon Stone” that you can gift freely to an opponent after a multiplayer match.
