Dixerius allows users to use their own media - MP3 audio, DivX movies, and a variety of other formats - and blast through enemies in space to the beat, and/or the visuals. This innovative concept allows for virtually unlimited gameplay. Dixerius features the proprietary R-Cube Engine, which features advanced lighting and rendering techniques, a robust client-server architecture for multiplayer, and easily extendable content.

Dixerius also features a short story mode, with a first-person intro sequence. Both musical and story modes can be played multiplayer over the Internet or LAN via TCP/IP with up to 16 players. For musical mode, the media (including video) is also synchronized between all clients.
