<!-- Give a brief description about the game -->
'''''DJ Hero 2''''' is a rhythm video game and a sequel to [[DJ Hero]], a spinoff of the [[:Category:Guitar Hero (Series)|Guitar Hero series]]. DJ Hero 2 uses a special turntable-controller, the same as introduced in DJ Hero, to simulate turntablism, the act of creating a new musical work from one or more previously recorded songs using record players and sound effect generators. The game is developed by FreeStyleGames and is published by Activision, and was released worldwide in October 2010.

In very rare cases the game will softlock during song transitions when playing a setlist (the next song never starts and trying to leave to the main menu causes the game to hang entirely).

DJ Hero 2 is a rhythm video game and a sequel to DJ Hero, a spinoff of the Guitar Hero series. DJ Hero 2 uses a special turntable-controller, the same as introduced in DJ Hero, to simulate turntablism, the act of creating a new musical work from one or more previously recorded songs using record players and sound effect generators. The game is developed by FreeStyleGames and is published by Activision, and was released worldwide in October 2010.

Configuration

No options that deviate from RPCS3's default settings are recommended for this title.

Known Issues

In very rare cases the game will softlock during song transitions when playing a setlist (the next song never starts and trying to leave to the main menu causes the game to hang entirely).

Special Notes
