[3] A port of the game for the iOS, Jubeat Plus, was released on Apple's Japanese App Store in 2010.

[7] The basic gameplay of the series can be roughly compared to Nintendo DS music games such as Osu!

Animated explosions or other animations, called "markers", that can be chosen at the song select screen are shown within the panels synced to a track of the player's choosing; when they reach a "hot point", which is dependent on the marker chosen, the player must tap the corresponding screen along with the rhythm of the song to score points.

[8] Taps can be judged as either Perfect, いい感じ (Good), 早い (Fast), or 遅い (Slow).

As with other Konami games, an e-Amusement card can be used to save statistics and a player ranking, and can also be used to access unlockable songs.
