Lockstep 2 (ウラオモテ2^?, Ura Omote 2) is the 4th Rhythm Game of the eight stage (39th overall) in Rhythm Heaven.

The long version, Lockstep, appears in the sixth stage of Rhythm Heaven and in Planet Land in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.

Gameplay

The gameplay of this game is almost exactly the same, but the tempo is slower. The music has a swing rhythm (or "some bounce to it"), altering when the player needs to tap during the offbeats.

	On the beat? You're a little off. Offbeat? More like just plain "off." Sloppy work on the transitions.	On the beat? You're a little off. Offbeat? More like just plain "off." Sloppy work on the transitions.

	You were all right on the beat. You hit the offbeats pretty well. Nice transitions between beats.	You were all right on the beat. You hit the offbeats pretty well. Nice transitions between beats.

Trivia

• The colors were softened in the international release of Rhythm Heaven, presumably to reduce seizures.
  • The closest to farthest zoom out's sprite is unfinished in the Japanese version, where a column of tiles is missing on the left side while the Stepswitchers are marching on the offbeat. This is fixed in the International release.

• The person the Stepswitchers form when fully zoomed out, who resembles Johann Sebastian Bach, returns in this game sporting an afro similar to the ones that The Clappy Trio wear.
• Like with Lockstep, the game stops tracking the player's performance during the last ten steps, meaning it does not impact the player's score or Perfect Campaign.
• The song uses a swing beat to differentiate itself from Lockstep. Despite this, the results still refer to it as the "offbeat".
