lr2ir-dataset
All datasets from LR2IR from 29th May 2026.
A preserved dataset of the LR2 rhythm game leaderboard captured before its shutdown, containing 25 million score entries and 326,000 chart records in a compressed SQLite database.
LR2IR was an online leaderboard and ranking service for the rhythm game LR2. When the site announced it would shut down permanently on May 31st 2026, this repository was created to preserve as much of the data as possible, captured two days before closure.
The main dataset is a large SQLite database file, compressed to roughly 4 gigabytes. It contains over 25 million individual score entries from players around the world, along with data for more than 326,000 charts. A chart in this context is a single song or beatmap that players compete on. The database records each player's score, ranking, combo, and accuracy details, alongside metadata about every chart such as its title, artist, difficulty level, and play statistics.
A second dataset contains raw HTML pages for every chart entry that appeared on the site. The README notes this is mostly redundant with the database, but is included for completeness.
The data is not yet presented in a friendly way for non-programmers. To browse the main database, you need to decompress it and open it in a tool called DB Browser for SQLite, which provides a spreadsheet-like view. The repository authors plan to build a read-only website so anyone can browse the preserved records without needing technical knowledge.
Not everything could be saved. Player profile pages, most replay files, and course data were not fully captured because a third party was flooding the site with traffic in its final days, making it unreachable for scraping.
Where it fits
- Download and browse the LR2 leaderboard archive to look up historical scores and rankings for rhythm game charts.
- Query the SQLite database to analyze player performance trends or chart difficulty statistics across 326,000 beatmaps.
- Build a read-only website or search tool on top of the dataset so non-technical players can browse the preserved records.
- Use the chart metadata to cross-reference LR2 scores with other rhythm game databases or difficulty rating systems.
