The port is announced to have more songs than any of the earlier DJMax Portable games. The US version of the game will contain 67 individual music tracks.

DJMax Technika Tune introduces 4 modes for single player. The gameplay utilises a 3-note track. Star Mixing is a beginner mode identical to the Lite Mixing mode in the original arcade version of DJMax Technika (prior to the large note patch). The game allows the player to play using the touchscreen, and the long, repeat, and chain notes do not appear in this mode. The charts in Freestyle mode are called STAR charts. Pop Mixing is an intermediate mode identical to the Popular Mixing mode in the original arcade game. The game allows the player to play using only the touchscreen, or both the touchscreen and the rear pad; this setting can be adjusted in the options. All types of notes appear in this mode. The charts in Freestyle mode are called POP charts. Club Mixing is an advanced mode identical to the Club Mixing mode in the DJMax Technika 2 and DJMax Technika 3 arcade games. Once the player clears all three songs of choice, a Boss Stage track will be available to play in the same manner as the arcade games. Along the game, the player is able to deplete the Groove Meter for up to one bar, and depleting the Groove Meter below the point allowed for any stage will result in a stage failure. The charts in Freestyle mode are called CLUB charts. Freestyle Mixing is a free mode similar to the Freestyle modes in earlier games within the DJMax Portable series and DJMax Trilogy. The songs unlocked in Star Mixing/Pop Mixing/Club Mixing will appear in this mode.
