As with DJ Max Technika, the game will feature online elements through the Platinum Crew service. DJ Max Technika 2 is expected to hold more online functionality than DJ Max Technika. The official website also mentions a "Crew Race", although currently little is known regarding specific details of the online service. Future announcements to reveal the online functionality for the game are expected soon.

The first location test for Technika 2 took place at Isu Theme Park from 23 April 2010. The features revealed to the public include:

• Duo Mixing: The screen is divided by left and right, and two players can play co-operatively. Although only all the song M/Vs are replace by one generic background.
• Star Mixing: The equivalent of Lite Mixing from the original DJ Max Technika, where three lanes are available for play. Fever (see below) cannot be used in this mode, however an optional guide which aids the player's timing can be turned on and off.
• Pop Mixing: Similar to Popular Mixing of the original Technika, but with minor changes, such as slightly larger notes.
• Club Mixing: The equivalent of Technical Mixing from the original DJ Max Technika. Newly added are Non-stop Remixes. (see below)
• Selection screen: The player selects a song by choosing one of 9 squares that appear per page, similar to Jubeat. A Random select feature is also available.
• Crew Race: A list of player's names appears, which represents a specific course and the record achieved.
• A new "long purple note", which has sections that are held and tapped.
• Improved visual quality and touch panel.
• Different MAX judgment system.
• Song note patterns are referred to as they were in the DJ MAX PC and Portable games. (Normal, Hard, and MX styles)
• Non-stop Remix: Allows the player to play a set of remixes from all previous DJMAX games. Only Available in Club Mixing. Examples are Son of Sun Full Version and NB Ranger Non-Stop Remix (NB Rangers, NB Rangers Returns, NB Power, and Dark Envy all as one song).
• Fever: Similar to the Fever used in other DJMAX games. The Fever gauge is located in between the two lines, and the button is located where "BGM Boost" was in the original Technika.
• Max Points shop: Platinum Crew users are able to purchase various items using MAX points earned in-game, such as avatars, DJ icons, notes, emblems and effectors.
