DJ Life Simulator is the first simulation game that doesn't just let you play as a DJ, it teaches you how to become one in real life using the same techniques employed by professional DJs. Built on a solid technical and educational foundation, the game recreates the real fundamentals of professional DJing. You can play using a mouse and keyboard or connect a compatible USB/MIDI DJ controller for an authentic mixing experience, just like using real equipment. Check the "Compatibility" section below to see the list of supported controllers. The game only supports importing music in MP3 and WAV formats. Other audio formats (such as FLAC, M4A, AAC, AIFF, and others) are not supported yet. Every mechanic was designed to be applicable outside the game. Here, you don't just play, you learn, practice, and grow as a real DJ. Compatibility DJ Life Simulator supports a wide range of MIDI-compatible DJ controllers. Pioneer DJ (AlphaTheta) controllers work plug-and-play, with no configuration required. Controllers from Serato, Hercules, Numark, and supported Traktor models are also compatible and only require a one-time MIDI mapping or setup. Check the compatibility table below to see the current list of tested devices. If your controller isn't listed, download the free demo and give it a try. If you need any assistance, our community on Discord is always happy to help. Please note: Controller support is still under active development during Early Access. Core mixing features are fully supported, but some hardware-specific functions—such as headphone cue (pre-listening), Performance Pads, and Beat FX—are not yet available. These features are planned for future updates. Academy Mode: Learn for Real Enter the DJ Academy and master the essential foundations of the profession.

Each person on the dancefloor has musical preferences based on the clothing styles they wear.

The crowd's reaction directly reflects your technical and musical decisions through their dancing and the aura indicators.
