[[File:Dancing Stage EuroMix 2.jpg|thumb|''Dancing Stage EuroMix 2'' arcade machine]]
'''''Dancing Stage EuroMix 2''''' was released in 2002, and is based on the ''[[DDRMAX Dance Dance Revolution 6thMix#Sequel|DDRMAX2 Dance Dance Revolution 7thMix]]'' engine. It includes 68 tracks, of which 52 are new and 16 are Konami originals from ''EuroMix''. ''EuroMix 2'' requires a PC Card and omits the Internet Ranking feature.

In contrast to ''EuroMix'', there is no home version of ''EuroMix 2''. However, ''[[Dancing Stage MegaMix]]'' features a similar interface. This game features 28 songs, including 11 Konami originals from ''EuroMix 2'' and a remix of "Let the beat hit em!"

===''Dancing Stage Fusion''===
{{main|Dancing Stage Fusion}}
''Dancing Stage Fusion'' is the first arcade release to be powered by the PlayStation 2 through a Bemani Python board. Despite the improved hardware, this game has fewer songs than its predecessor. ''Fusion'' features 49 songs, of which ten were available in previous ''Dancing Stage'' arcade releases, ten are from the arcade release of ''[[Dance Dance Revolution Extreme]]'' and seven are from older Japanese arcade releases. The remaining 21 songs premiered in ''Fusion'': six are Konami Originals that later appeared in ''Dancing Stage SuperNova'', while 15 are licenses that do not return in later arcade releases, with the exception of "Waiting For Tonight" by P.A.T's reappearance in ''[[Dance Dance Revolution SuperNova|Dance Dance Revolution SuperNova 2]]'' and ''[[Dance Dance Revolution X]]''.

===''Dancing Stage SuperNova''===
{{main|Dance Dance Revolution SuperNova}}
''Dancing Stage SuperNova'' used the Bemani Python 2 board.

===Console exclusives===
* '''''Dancing Stage Disney Mix''''' is a direct port of ''[[Dance Dance Revolution Disney Mix]]'', the American equivalent of the Japanese ''Dancing Stage featuring Disney's Rave''. It was released on September 28, 2001 for the PlayStation.
* '''''Dancing Stage Party Edition''''' is a port of the American ''[[Dance Dance Revolution Konamix]]'', with the addition of 5 licensed songs and the removal of 6 Konami Original songs for a total of 51 songs. It was released on November 15, 2002.
* '''''Dancing Stage Unleashed''''' is the European counterpart to the North American ''Dance Dance Revolution Ultramix'' series for the [[Xbox (console)|Xbox]] console. Three games were released annually from 2004 to 2006: ''Unleashed'', ''[[Dance Dance Revolution Ultramix 2|Unleashed 2]]'' and ''[[Dance Dance Revolution Ultramix 3|Unleashed 3]]'', each with exclusive songs replacing some of the ''Ultramix'' songs. No European counterpart to ''Ultramix 4'' was released. These games cannot be played on the [[Xbox 360]] or newer consoles.<ref>{{cite web |title=Play original Xbox games on an Xbox 360 console |url=https://support.xbox.com/en-CA/help/xbox-360/games/backward-compatibility/play-original-xbox-games-on-xbox-360 |website=Xbox |publisher=Microsoft |access-date=October 23, 2022}}</ref>
* '''''Dancing Stage Fever''''' is the second European DDR game to be released for the PlayStation 2, although a port for PlayStation was also released. The PS2 edition uses a recolored ''DDRMAX2'' engine with an aqua blue background complemented with star motifs instead of black and gray, while the PS edition uses a recolored ''DDR 4thMix'' engine. Also, the PS edition omits freeze arrows and full motion videos.

: The PlayStation 2 edition has 29 songs: 8 licenses, 16 Konami originals (of which 14 are also on ''Dancing Stage SuperNova'' for arcades) and 5 Bemani crossovers (of which 4 are also on ''Dancing Stage SuperNova'' for arcades). The PlayStation edition only features 15 of these songs: 5 licenses, 8 Konami originals and 2 Bemani crossovers.

: All licensed songs, with one exception, are exclusive to ''Fever''. Both ''Fever'' releases include "[[All That She Wants]]", "[[Cool for Cats (song)|Cool for Cats]]", "[[One Step Beyond (song)|One Step Beyond]]" and "Virtuality" (by [[VBirds]]). On the PlayStation 2, these songs feature their music video, except for "Cool for Cats". The "Virtuality" music video notably shows the VBirds members dancing on flying [[dance pad]]s to the rhythm of the arrows shown on screen.<ref>{{cite web|title=vbirds - Virtuality [HD 1080p]| website=[[YouTube]] |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fj2xLr-mVp0 |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211221/fj2xLr-mVp0 |archive-date=2021-12-21 |url-status=live|accessdate=March 18, 2018|date=June 17, 2012}}{{cbignore}}</ref> The PlayStation 2 version also exclusively features "[[Come On Eileen]]", "[[Teenage Kicks]]" (with its music video) and "[[The Boys Are Back in Town]]". "[[Wannabe]]" was once exclusive to both ''Fever'' releases, but it was later included on ''Dance Dance Revolution Party Collection''.
* '''''Dancing Stage Universe''''' is the European counterpart to the North American ''Dance Dance Revolution Universe'' series for the [[Xbox 360]]. ''[[Dance Dance Revolution Universe|Dancing Stage Universe]]'' was released in 2007 in Europe and Australia, while ''[[Dance Dance Revolution Universe 2|Universe 2]]'' was released in 2008 for Europe only. Both games feature exclusive songs, replacing some of the North American songs. No European counterpart to ''[[Dance Dance Revolution Universe 3]]'' was released, as Konami launched a Chinese edition of ''Universe 3'' in 2009 instead. These games cannot be played on the [[Xbox One]] or newer consoles.
* '''''Dancing Stage SuperNova 2''''' was originally meant to complement the planned arcade release of the same name. The arcade version was cancelled, however, making this a console exclusive.
