Beyond the Official Tracklist: How to Play and Enjoy Custom Songs in Project SEKAI

Project SEKAI: Colorful Stage! feat. Hatsune Miku boasts an incredible, ever-expanding library of Vocaloid hits. From classic cornerstones by Ryo and rui to massive modern radio staples, there is usually something for everyone. But what happens when you have mastered every official Master chart, and you are craving that one specific indie Vocaloid song, meme track, or fanmade cover that isn’t in the game?

While the official application does not feature an in-game custom song importer or level editor, the passionate rhythm game community has built fantastic ecosystem workarounds. Whether you want to play jaw-dropping fanmade charts (“custom charts”) or try your hand at making them yourself, here is your complete guide to diving into the world of custom Project SEKAI content.
