"Rhythm Control 2 Revives Classic Game, Now on Android"

by Jonathan Apr 21,2025

The mobile gaming world has often felt like it's missing a robust rhythm game scene, but fans of the genre have reason to celebrate with the release of **Rhythm Control 2** on Android. This game brings back the beloved original from 2012, which was a chart-topping success in Japan and Sweden, now optimized for today's devices.

For those who remember the original, **Rhythm Control 2** offers a fresh take on the rhythm game formula. Instead of tapping falling icons, players now engage with six nodes that they must tap in sequence. The challenge escalates as the patterns become more complex, with additional twists that keep the gameplay engaging and unpredictable.

The game features an eclectic mix of tracks from both Western and Japanese artists, including Bit Shifter, YMCK, Boeoes Kaelstigen, and Slagsmålsklubben. This diverse soundtrack not only caters to a wide audience but also adds to the game's appeal, encouraging players to tap to the beat and chase those ridiculous high scores!

**Control yourself** - Rhythm Control 2 stands out as a worthy addition to the mobile rhythm game genre. While other games like Beatstar have made their mark, Rhythm Control 2's unique gameplay and eclectic song selection set it apart. It's not just about playing safely; it's about diving into the challenge, perhaps discovering a newfound passion for obscure Japanese techno or another niche genre.

If rhythm games aren't your thing, don't worry. There's plenty more to explore in the mobile gaming world. Check out our latest list of the top five new mobile releases to try this week, or dive into our article "Ahead of the Game" for more gaming insights and tips.
